Their route across the country, including COVID-19-threatening stop-overs on the Border, is detailed in much the same way as you would get with a European package tour travel itinerary.

But, of course, they have also tried to cover their tracks.
That's perfectly illustrated by the fact it was a few days before it was even established they were travelling not in one but two trucks.
Nevertheless, thanks to hard work behind the scenes we have been given a picture of where they have been and when.
When you look at the ramifications for not just small communities, such as Jindera where one Border exposure occurred, but also large - in metropolitan Melbourne - it is quite the worry.
But what is perhaps most curious now is the fact that we don't know who these people are, nor the business that pays their wages.

Granted, the case of our rogue renovators is different to such cases in that not only do the authorities know who they are, they have also caught up with them.
