Quotewinos Channel 7 had a very,very brief shot of some live Stones footage last night to say they were coming back but not when exactly One of the commercial channels - 9 I think - had (or even has?) a commercial arrangement with The Stones (or more likely the promoters) and they ran a "special" on the eve of the truncated tour. So arguably, they are more likely to get the scoop o

QuoteMacnee2 Any sources or supporting evidence to suggest that they are on the way? Nothing has been reported publicly. In Australia their arrival would be major media news. Indicative Tweets from Ronnie, Mrs Ronnie, & Bernard. Open to all to see. Reports of Mick & Ronnie dining together in Dubai on Saturday last. Agreed, so far ZILCH seen in the media about their actual arrival..

So, has anyone picked up any evidence anywhere that The Stones actually travelled last night? Indirectly, tour related activity on the Twitter feed and Facebook may be a pointer. Anyone? (I got fascinated watchng one of the possible flights on flightradar24.com last evening and learnt that the landing speed of an A380 is as low as 115kmph! My car can go faster than that!!)

Going out on a hopeful limb here! At the time I'm writing this (08:15 AEST) Twitter tells me that Sally Wood, WITH RONNIE IN THAT PICTURE, will be leaving Dubai. My guess is that they are headed, on a commercial flight, to Melbourne (look at the outbound from Dubai) and will arrive here tonight 21:50 AEST - about 13.5 hours from the time of this posting.
