DNS tries out ‘That Pizza’

News, , ,

As written about earlier today, That Pizza is now open for business and so DNS taken the opportunity tonight to go out, buy and then eat one of the Pizzas from the menu.

Our man of many talents Daniel Clark stepped up to the plate to test out how well they can make a BBQ Meatlovers Pizza.

It wasn’t long before the verdict was in, the BBQ Meatlovers Pizza from That Pizza was judged to taste ‘F**king Amazing’.

The only critique that we can offer is that the box was flimsy and the Pizza was missing the Pizza Saver (the white table you see on a Pizza) and so some of the topping ended up on the top of box but overall the experience was everything our Pizza guru hoped for.

So there you have it ladies and gentlemen, DNS tried and enjoyed the pizza from That Pizza and if you want to buy and try some too, visit their website to take a look at their menu then give them a call on 5881 8480 or go on down to 396 Cressy Street to place your order.

May you the reader encounter an enjoyable experience when you order a Pizza in the future.

Moderate Flooding in effect

News, , , ,

The Edward River has risen to moderate flooding levels at a speed that has taken many by surprise.

After a rise of 42cm between 9am yesterday and 9am today, A similar rise of 39cm (9am to 7pm) happened in just ten hours.

The September 30 river peak of 7.06m was surpassed early this afternoon and rises continued on at great speed to reach the moderate flooding level of 7.20m at 7pm this evening.

At this time of writing, the Edward River is rising 4-5cm per hour and if it holds at that pace the 8.4m prediction could be reached in around 26 hours.

We once again remind readers of what is to come between now and the 8.40m prediction;

At 7.32m outside the levee of the Riverside Caravan Park will be inundated
At 7.91m water crosses Chippenham Park Road
At 7.94m Memorial Drive will be inundated
At 8.50m McLean Beach Holiday Park levee is overtopped* (closer to 8.2m before sandbagging)

McLean Beach Holiday Park is expected to be closed by Wednesday as the water level forces the closure of the entry road, removal of property and moving of vans etc is already underway.

NSW SES are holding a public meeting tomorrow night to discuss preparedness and answer questions relating to the likely impact of flooding.

The meeting will be taking place at 7pm down at the Deniliquin RSL Club’s Auditorium.

DNS and Deniliquin History in Photos are both following developments and will continue to report as developments as fold as quickly as possible.

Rovers Talk (23/7/16)

Rovers Talk,

Today the Rovers were enjoying their second single club bye of the season, A Grade is going through their third bye and will be sort of enjoying their fourth in Round 18.

With all but the Under 15’s Netball side entrenched in a position to make the finals, fans are getting behind the side as the Rovers are just two competition points off making it in to the Top 5.

Blighty and Strathmerton held serve today as both sides recorded wins to maintain the two point buffer on the Rovers but the Under 15’s must not give up hope at any time as one win above either side will get them in.

For the Rovers teams heading for the finals in both Football and Netball, It is still not for certain which teams will join them for several competitions still have sides outside the five a chance to get in at another team’s expense.

Next week against Tocumwal will be a great challenge for all Rovers sides they are known for having formidable teams and the following week will be against Berrigan and despite their struggles this year, nothing should be taken for granted.

Join us next Thursday as Rovers Talk takes a look at all the sides form leading into Round 17.
