In 1890 CC Wards opened for business in New Plymouth. For the last 25 odd years, and on past retirement my mother has worked in this store as one of 2 trained mastectomy "fitters" for those who have had breast cancer and removal (including, ironically, my mother). 124 years later, due to the apparently fraudulent behaviour of the current owner when it comes to relationships with the Tax department and Customs department, the store is closing down.

Cracking shot, very cheeky, bummer for the company and so forth. You only have yourself to blame for becoming the butt end of all these awful jokes (they really do stink).
