Jim Mitas

Mr PEARSON: A big shout-out to Jim Mitas from JB’s fish and chip shop in Ascot Vale. He sold his business recently and had his last day on Friday. The good people of Ascot Vale turned out in force on Friday—I have never seen the shop so busy—to farewell Jim, who has been a fixture of Ascot Vale for many, many years. Jim has made an outstanding contribution to our community, and there has been so much warmth and affection shown towards him these last few days. Jim, I wish you all the very best for the next chapter in your career. Thank you for all your labours and endeavours. You are an absolute gent.
