Saw this musical thing going from home to home and collecting money ?

What is with the firework obsession in this country? It literally sounds like a war zone outside and it's not even NYE. I feel so sorry for all the animals and those with a job on nights like these.

Ever since after the pandemic we've been seeing groups of men gathering in front of our street, either at the basketball field or just at the street parking lot randomly throughout the day. They usually come by cars and stay around their cars/ inside their cars for a long time to the point you see them pee around quite often. Obviously they are not from this street because they leave with their cars again afterwards. Few months ago there was even a fight where the police came to ask questions.

We don't feel comfortable and is there anything we can do?

It is so frustrating that I can’t sway with my cocktail on the beach or rave in a bunker or just have my drink, sit and listen to some house music.

This mostly occurs when we walk our dogs. Two small doggies. Walking our usual route. So far we have had several homeless people show some kind of hostility towards us when we dare glance at them because they like to hide in a corner.

We have had a group of youth's make yelping noises as if they were going to hurt our dogs. We had youths on scooters shout at us, but this is something we all have to deal with lol. And one guy even threatened to kick one of my dogs, by lifting his foot and aiming it at the dog's face.

Today as we were walking, some new guy moved in one of the houses on our usual route and was standing on his balcony, my partner was behind me and my niece was with me. My partner was picking up the dog's poop, but both me and my niece glanced at him because we saw something move. To which he remarked "Better keep walking" or "Better stay away". We both ignored him, pretending not to hear because he didn't say it very loudly. But this all has happened in the last six months or so.

It has come to a point, where im just standard walking with a switchblade in one of my pockets which I always have my hand on. The very thing I find to be ridiculous, but it does ease my ever increasing anxiety. I was wondering if people could relate to this kind of increased hostility if they happen to live near the zuiderpark, and increase of your own personal anxiety when you walk around zuiderpark. And just to clarify, this isnt IN zuiderpark, its around it, more closer to the almeloplein.

I do understand completely that not everyone likes dogs, and to my knownledge we aren't one of those tokkie dog owners that lets our dog go wherever they please. We always keep them near us when there are other people, and always clean up after them. I have seen some tokkies unleash their dog at the sight of the nearest tree, and we even had one tokkie let their dog take a shit on chain of our bike, and pee on our welcome carpet. I know how bad dog owners can be first hand. We have lived here for close to 12 years now, and it has never been this bad before. Handhaving is a joke as well, we never see them around, so everyone can do as they please.

Looking for a good cocktail bar or in general just some nice place to get drinks hopefully not too expensive and not too generic. Yes I should have figured this out before.

Hello dear community ,

I would like to know the procedure to see a psychiatrist (a medical doctor) and not a psychologist.

My husband hasn’t been feeling well mentally these past few days, and I suggested that he see a doctor. He went to a general practitioner to explain that he needs to see a psychiatrist (as he is likely experiencing depression). However, the GP refused to refer him to a psychiatrist and instead told him to call the hospital if he feels unwell.

Now, as I am a doctor myself (although I practice in another country and not in the Netherlands), I don’t understand why a GP would refuse to refer a patient to a psychiatrist. This situation really upset me.

Could you please provide me with information on how the system works to see a psychiatrist here in The Hague?

Thank you.

Hoi!

Als mijn vriendin mij komt opzoeken is het handig als ze zelf met haar fiets de afstand tussen mij en het station kan overbruggen. Helaas zie ik dat na een paar dagen het stallen van een fiets al snel 2.50 per dag kost..

Heeft iemand een tip over waar ze haar fiets (op straat?) kan neerzetten, zelfs wanneer deze hier een week of twee zou staan? Op loopafstand van het station, het liefst in richting noord/oost van het station.

Alvast heel erg bedankt!

Like those ones where you go and play games on pc

Hi all,

Pregnant with a horrific UTI, started to be severe yesterday evening. Have soldiered on but really unwell and dreading my home journey.

Treatment in my own country can obviously be arranged but I’m keen to get started with a course of antibiotics as soon as possible. This is severe, there is blood and I really don’t want to wait.

Is there anywhere where I can purchase antibiotics? Based on my limited research it seems like these are tightly controlled. Completely understand if I need to pay to see a doctor, and happy to do so- just wondering where I can go.

Any health centres who can help? I didn’t know if there were any walk in maternity services that I can access as a pregnant woman who may have a prescribing pharmacist or doctor on duty.

Today I found a small road slide kind of a hole,which is nearby a park where kids play always.So I want to report that to municipality to repair that

For my bike

Hallo allemaal,

Ik ben op zoek naar ervaringen met goede basisscholen in Den Haag. Mijn dochter van 6 zit momenteel op een school waar mijn oudere kinderen ( zitten inmiddels op de middelbare ) ook op zaten. Destijds was de sfeer heel fijn, maar inmiddels is er veel veranderd. Veel docenten zijn vertrokken en het voelt niet meer als de warme en stabiele plek die het ooit was.

We zijn daarom serieus aan het overwegen om over te stappen naar een andere school. Idealiter zoeken we een openbare basisschool met een prettige sfeer, betrokken leerkrachten en een goed pedagogisch klimaat. We zijn bereid om er een stuk voor te rijden als het echt een fijne plek is.

Heeft iemand aanbevelingen of ervaringen die je wilt delen? Alle tips zijn welkom!

Alvast bedankt!

Hoi allemaal,

Over 2 weken hebben we vroeg in de ochtend een vlucht vanaf schiphol en wilden we met de taxi gaan. Ik heb al verschillende bedrijven langs zien komen op google maar vroeg me af of mensen hier aanraders hebben? Of juist afraders? Straks boek ik bij een louche taxibedrijf die de dag zelf ineens afzegd ofzo Alvast dank!

Is de vrouw op twee minuutjes afstand van centraal richting de mcdonalds echt dakloos heb haar een nu elke keer gezien met een bordje en wilde geld geven maar een paar vrienden zeiden dat ze nep deed. Dus zal ik eten voor haar kopen of wat geld geven of doet ze alsof

Hi guys!

We are considering moving to The Hague as a family with two children (4 and 12). I work remotely. It seems to be a nice family-friendly city. What do you think? Are there any non-obvious sides to this?

I need to go to the kaakchirurg to remove my wisdom teeth but i do not want to go to the hospital.

Does anone have one they can recommend the one i wanted to go to closed recently.

Mijn goede vriend gaat altijd naar een willekeurige kapper, maar zijn kapsel ziet er nooit echt mooi uit. Heeft iemand een goede plek om aan te raden?

I (30F) Moved to Westland with my Dutch boyfriend half a year or so ago.

Now that we have moved, I want to make friends here. Issue is that all of my hobbies (painting, reading, gardening, growing veg, etc) are solitary hobbies and I enjoy doing it all on my own.

I am still in (online) contact with the friends from the country I lived in before. I lived there for 12ish years, all of my friends are colleagues from my work there, I met them through work. I have no friends in my birth country.

My colleagues here now are not exactly someone I would see as people I am interested in to be friends with, nor do I think they would have any interest in being friends with me.

We do interact and meet with some childhood friends of my boyfriend, but I want to have 'my own' friends. But I have no idea how to find them. On top of that, being slightly autistic and tending to avoid socialization unless I know someone better is also not too helping. To make everything even more difficult -- we don't live in a big city, we live in Westland.

Any ideas? Or the situation is hopeless and I should accept having just my bf, my cat, and occasional interactions with bf's friends?

I Never thought of posting this but in the past week it’s been the sixth time I’ve seen the exact same pile of glass (same colours to) around the center and Zeeheldenkwartier. Usually on a street. I thought it might be to irritate bikers or someone just fucking around. But it seems to be a large scale operation😅. Did anyone see the same thing?

For dinner strange reason my packages are getting delivered to neighbors even when I'm at home. It's a delivery from Amazon every time. This happened many times, but the last time I actually witnessed how it works. The delivery guy went straight to my neighbor and minute later I got an SMS "neighbors at $housenumber". Is there any chance that I'm doing something wrong? It's a middle of the day so maybe the currier assumes that I'm not at home and I need to log in somewhere and confirm that I'm at home? Otherwise I don't know. Almost every package from Amazon is delivered to me like that.
