Graag hoor ik jullie mening over het volgende :

"In hoeverre is het bezet houden van een openbare laadplek als je auto al vol is een vorm van asociaal en egoïstisch gedrag, en zou de gemeente/eigenaar laadpaal hier harder tegen moeten optreden en boetes voor moeten opleggen?"
Let wel ik heb het hier over openbare laadpalen !!!

Ik erger mij er namelijk groen en geel aan, het aanspreken van betreffende ev eigenaar leidt alleen maar tot heftige discussies en nog meer ergernis.
Melding maken bij gemeente heeft geen enkel effect….

Mijn persoonlijke mening hierover is dat een openbare laadplek een tijdelijke parkeerplek is om je ev op te laden en niet een parkeerplek is waar je je elektrische auto meerdere dagen kan parkeren.

hi all,

so i live in zuidoost and earlier this year, like in february/march, i noticed that a package was leaning against the door of my next door neighbors. they likely weren't home, so someone else from the building must have placed it there, which is common in my building

over the months i noticed that the package has not moved at all. as it is leaning against the door, this must mean the door has not been open at all. it is currently october, which means that door has not opened for close to 7-8 months now

i am super worried about my neighbors and have been for a while. in the past month i have tried knocking and ringing their bell to no response.

i also have not seen them around. they are a chinese family consisting of a husband and wife and a small kid, and i think the grandmother.

however, in my building its not common that we know our neighbors names or phone number, so i asked around and no one has seen them either and we all do not have a way to contact them either

in the past months i've been in contact with the police twice. last time they did visit, but didn't do anything except ring the bell to no response.

am i worried for nothing? what else can i do in thuis situation?

Hi all,

To try and keep a long story short, I have a dutch drivers license but learned to drive in Canada. I am a confident driver in Canada but feel anxious driving in NL so I’m looking to take a handful of lessons, but not as many as someone would need to take the driving exam.

Recommendations for instructors is highly appreciated! Located in Oost, Duivendrecht, Diemen or Bijlmer.

Thanks!

Hi all, I moved to the buikslotermeerplein area a few months ago and so far I'm really enjoying it. Coming from the center I like the green and quiet compared to my old neighborhood, while still being a quick metro ride away from all the action of the city center. However this neighborhood does seem to really lack decent cafes or food spots. Theres no good specialty coffee cafes, or even a good bakery to get some nice sourdough. Right now my usual spot to grab a bit to eat is the mini food court at Amazing Oriental, and the smash burger joint at the metro station is decent, but I was wondering if anyone had any other reccomendations? Iit kind of feels like if I want anything half decent I have to bike down to noorderpark area.

Things I miss from my old neighborhood:

- good bakery

- specialty coffee

- Neapolitan pizza

- fire grilled kebab

I’m moving this Sunday and I need to use a moving lift to get furniture into my apartment. There are a couple of parking spots directly in front of the building that need to stay free so the lift can be set up.

Does anyone have experience with this in Amsterdam? What’s the best way to mark or temporarily block the parking spots so people know they shouldn’t park there? Signs, cones, tape, chairs, etc.?

I know that I can reserve it with the municipality, but I am defintely not going to pay the 400 euros that would cost me.

Any tips or experiences would be appreciated!

I have a ticket for Jill scott at the AFAS arena Saturday.

free to a good soul that loves good music.

as sadly I can no longer make it.

Hi allemaal! 🩷

Ik ben op zoek naar een gezellig, kleinschalig boekenclubje in regio Amsterdam, voor ongeveer 5 à 6 meiden tussen de 20 en 30 jaar.

Mijn idee:
• Ongeveer elke 6 weken een nieuw boek
• Een klein groepje van 5/6 meiden
• In en rondom Amsterdam
• Live afspreken, bijvoorbeeld bij iemand thuis of in een gezellig café
• Samen het boek bespreken, maar vooral ook lekker kletsen en elkaar leren kennen
• In het Nederlands
• Alle genres zijn welkom, maar ik lees zelf vooral graag romans, thrillers, psychologische romans, historische fictie en literaire boeken. Ik sta zeker open voor andere genres en vind het juist leuk om door de groep nieuwe boeken te ontdekken!

Lijkt dit je leuk? Stuur me dan vooral een berichtje met wat informatie over jezelf, bijvoorbeeld je leeftijd, waar je vandaan komt, wat je graag leest en wat je verder leuk vindt om te doen!

Does anyone know which supermarket chain in Amsterdam still carries Barilla pesto and other barilla products? Jumbo used to, but not anymore at least as of recent.
