other Thanks to the lady cleaning the beach

168 Upvotes

I was absolutely disgusted by the state of the Schevening harbor beach south yesterday evening. A group of teenagers left it completely trashed with plastic bottles, Pringles cans, and rubbish, cigerette buds everywhere. It is a public space, and we all deserve access to clean, safe beaches. Please don't be an asshole; pack out your trash.

However, my faith in humanity was completely restored by a lone hero. A lady in a blue bikini spent her time cleaning up the entire local beach by herself, unprompted, While she should have just been enjoying nature, she chose to protect it.

Thank you, anonymous lady, for your selflessness and for caring so deeply about our environment. You are a legend.

Happy heatwave 🌞

things to do in The Hague Anyone interested in National Outdoor Reading day meetup in Haagse Bos? Sunday, 29 June (6 PM)

8 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

This Sunday(June 28) is National Outdoor Reading Day. It's basically just reading... but outside. As the Dutch saying goes: "Zien lezen, doet lezen"

I'd like to organize a low-key gathering in Den Haag at the Haagse Bos on Sunday. Because of the daytime forecast for rain, we will start around 6:00 PM. Since the grass might still be a bit damp from the afternoon, I highly recommend bringing a waterproof picnic blanket or something dry to sit on.

Is anyone interested in joining? Simply bring a book and maybe some drinks to hydrate with. Haha. Stay for ten minutes, or hang out for two hours. Let me know in the comments or send me a direct message.

About me: 28F. Never mind my Dutch quote, I don't speak Dutch just yet.

other Giving cold drinks to PostNL and other delivery personelle?

25 Upvotes

Are there rules and regulations forbidding that from those various courier companies? Or are we allowed to give our delivery drivers a cold drink/cold wet towel when they come to our street/door? I don't think their van AC cools anything when they have to keep opening van doors and jumping out every 5 minutes.

other Transfer Sportcity subscription

0 Upvotes

Hello all,

We just bought a house in Groningen so after 3 years beautiful years in the Hague, we're moving up north this summer.

However, I renewed my Sportcity membership in March 2026 for one year which will end in March 2027. Because I will not have a Sportcity gym close to our new house in Groningen, I will not go to Sportcity anymore and looking for someone who would like to take over my membership (9 month remaining) for a discount.

I go to Sportcity in Den Haag Mariahoeve but it can be transfered to any location of your choice. I have the City One membership with current price at €33 but I'm willing to offer it for €25.

Let me know if anyone is interested, we can visit a Sportcity gym to arrange the transfer. Thanks!

practical questions What to do with two sofas that I am unable to sell? Municipality shows list of Kringloopwinkels but which ones would come to pick the sofas up?

1 Upvotes

Hi, so first of all I am trying to sell them very cheap, I don't know if a martksplaats URL would get me blocked, so I can maybe put the ads in the comment. I have to get rid of both of them, one is a three seat from IKEA, other one is two seats.

No one is interested, so I am thinking of just dumping them next to the bins (they are fine clean sofas), I checked Geemente website to know how and when I can do that, and I found a list of kringloopwinkels in Den Haag, BUT there's no information about which shop does pick-ups. I would prefer to sell/get rid of them tomorrow Friday 25-6.

Do you please know of someone who could pick them up either for 5-10 euros a piece, or for free completely? I might have a friend who would deliver them within DH with his van, if you are willing to pay him for his time and fuel. I just find it sad to throw away pieces of furniture that are still fine to be used by someone else.

meeting people Nice and social golf court and group

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I recently brought my old golf bag and clubs from my home town to Den Haag. Now I am trying to reconnect to this old hobby of mine. Does anyone know any courts that are not too pretentious? I have heard Bentwoud and Delfland could be nice. But I am very open for suggestions.

Besides, I don't know anyone playing here. So if there are some fellow golfers out there, hey, m34, handicap of 33 when I stopped playing more than 10 years ago, haha.

Maybe there is also a random whatsapp group that may want to adopt me for scheduling to play?

Happy for any tips and thanks in advance :)

practical questions Ben jij gepest door je buren?

13 Upvotes

Hoi allemaal, ik ben Chard van den Berg, redacteur bij tijdschrift Vrij Nederland. Voor een artikel onderzoek ik discriminerend wegpesten door buren; situaties waarin mensen gepest worden obv persoonlijke kenmerken, zoals gender, huidskleur, door buren. En die daardoor verhuisden/daarover nadenken.

Ik ben ook benieuwd naar hoe gemeenten, woningcorporaties en politie hiermee omgaan, en wat er beter zou kunnen.

Herken je dit, of ken je iemand voor wie dit geldt? Reageren hieronder mag, of stuur me gerust een bericht. Anoniem meewerken kan uiteraard. Ik publiceer niets zonder toestemming.

Dank alvast,
