I think the expression 'good lawyer' is a contradiction of terms.
If you're going down the path of a class action, you might want to choose where you launch that action. I'm assuming you will have Americans on board. Maybe tag on to their legal action because it's likely to pay more...eventually.
Either way, wait till you get back and can assess what actions are being taken.
In the meantime, Tuscany is nice and it should be starting to warm up a bit. I'm not sure what the insides of the prison..er hotel will be like. The funny thing is, you'll be in quarantine in Italy, then fly back to Oz (hopefully) to go into quarantine again. That's AFL level of b***sup in my view.
Wish you guys good luck to get home asap.
ps. Don't wait for Shane's boat. You could swim back faster.
