Congratulations on the success of today. I was up from the central coast. I was born in Lambton, attended Lambton Primary School from 1957 to 1963. Shopped at many of the shops and also worked at Hills Pharmacy on the corner of Elder Street & Morehead Street, in 1969-70. So proud to be from such a great place and so proud of all involved today.
