    You can still get to Fox Glacier from Haast but there will be delays. Of course, you would then need to go back the same way.

    Edit: The walk is closed due to landslides and storm damage so a scenic flight would be the only option.

    I'm set up and on, but not super active. I kind of enjoy it, but also find it a little gimmicky. Quote like the workouts, they really keep you honest.

    Have been contemplating trying our TrainerRoad also.

    @MN5 the allrounder rankings are a sham due to a desperate lack of genuine contenders.

    @rapido said in Nadene Lomu:

    I can't remember if this has been discussed.

    But to get an understanding of why Jonah may have been 'broke' when he died you should just google " Jonah Lomu father in-law".
    Think that sorded back story came out last time, yeah shows why she is the way she is. Of course they deny taking advantage of Jonah..

    <p>No it categorically doesn't. I quoted the regulation. IF it is to be halal then it must have its throat cut and it must be stunned, and the stunning has to comply with regulations about that. But it doesn't have to be halal by regulation. FYI what I posted was a cut and paste from the regulation and it clearly has the word "unless" in it. So there is a choice.<br><br>
    Of course if you use an "approved method which renders the animal instantaneously insensitive" it wouldn't be halal, but so what? The government does not require meat to be halal, and it doesn't require animals to be stunned.<br><br>
    If people wan halal slaughter to stop their target should be the meat processors not the MPI</p>

    <p>Yeah I think that was Hydro's point. That the animal must be stunned if it's going to be slaughtered halal-styles.</p>
    <p>I think it goes without saying that stunning is not necessary if you're going to kill the thing instantly.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Honestly I don't have a problem with the NZ method. I know that to be halal they must be conscious but I certainly don't remember lambs coming down the shoot before they had their throats cut like they are anything but completely out. I guess that's why lamb etc from NZ is very much in a grey area when it comes to halal or not.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>From my time at the freezing works, it never looked cruel.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It's probably about time that the EU came into line with NZ law and removed their religious exceptions.</p>
    <p>Pretty backward eh.</p>
