If there's a Marc Remillard on the team should we be worried?

And if I recall, the results were that squatting is actually better at lining up all of the anatomy for least effort in evacuation. As a result there was a suggestion of a lower incidence of haemorrhoids.
Actually New Zealand has quite a few islands and more than three that are inhabited, but the three that most people refer to are North Island, South Island and Stewart Island (even though there are larger populations on others). The fourth most likely inhabited island to be mentioned is Waiheke Island (and the third most populated).
In that case let's really blow your mind...
A Kiwi is a bird or a person, not a fruit.
... Also New Zealand is comprised of three major islands North Island, South Island and West Island... Also some of my facts may be slightly inaccurate - but not the bit about the fruit.
Two! Two bats!
(The actual bats don't look anything like these bats. This is just a tribute)
I missed the other ones... Must've been hiding behind the first one...
New Zealand doesn't really have any deadly animals.
No scorpions, snakes (other than the very appearance of a sea-snake), crocs, large cats, bears, etc. Our most venomous spiders can generally only make most people a little bit unwell. We might occasionally see a potentially dangerous shark but they're so rare that I can't recall when a notable attack happened.
Our insects aren't generally disease spreaders - though we've come close a few times to some getting a foothold.
Colonists introduced many destructive species but nothing very personally dangerous. In theory there could still be moose, but it seems unlikely.
The only NZ native land-mammal is a tiny bat as far as I know.
There is the small problem with orcs, goblins, trolls and Australians... but it's okay, we have a wizard (retired?).
One day perhaps they'll be seen again more commonly as is now the case with tui and kererū in some areas.
At 8% they're probably going to outperform KiwiSaver... but maybe not savers of kiwi.
It requires careful preparation to really enjoy.
Storage is easy though.I like to keep a whole shelf of the stuff.
Preferably in a building, maybe a store, a properly safe distance from where I shop just in case anyone accidentally discovers it and brings some home...
Here in NZ, we have a sub-handful of places where 110 is allowed, the rest is mostly 100 with more and reduced to 80, 70, 60 or 50 (in places that used to be 100).
To be fair, a great deal of our roadway is not up to safe use at 100 (though I do disagree with where that dividing line is placed).
Unfortunately I think that reducing the limits on unsafe surfaces and roading layout is now seen as a permanent solution. Any mitigation mechanism like that should be coupled with at some publicly visible prioritisation to resolve it.
Alas with our small population and relatively large roading network I doubt it's getting better for us any time soon.
Hey you. Over the ditch. I feel your pain and hope you have better luck.
Multiple upvotes! And here I was thinking this comment was too obscure and I'd have to abaddon it.
My body's all a-tingle... Though I'm not sure Jack feels the same way.
