Hello all,
I have been living in Arnhem since last June with my partner. We both registered when we arrived. Now we are coming to near the end of our rental contract and are looking for somewhere else to live, probably in Utrecht or Amsterdam.
I see a lot of properties listed online where registration isn't possible or is only possible for one person. Currently I am working full time in amsterdam whilst my partner is studying for their masters in Utrecht. Is it necessary for us to re-register if we already have our bank accounts, BSN etc organised? We are both eu citizens if that has any relevance so there are no visa concerns. It seems like we will have more of a chance of finding somewh
Hi everyone,
I moved to Arnhem 1month ago from abroad. The temperature hit 40c the week after I came here and then today my buienradar app told me I would have no rain so I was out cycling my bike in a t shirt and shorts and got caught in a mini monsoon.
Is this normal? I thought the Netherlands had a relatively temperate climate but this yo-yo between extremes is very strange to me and not what I expected when I moved here.
Can anyone recommend a good app for predicting the weather so I don't get caught outside in a downpour again like I did today?
I suppressed negative emotions for years because I thought it made me strong.
Now I think strength is allowing yourself to experience your emotions honestly.
I still have issues crying though, I want to cry right now but it won't happen.
I feel like I'd feel better if I could cry so if anyone has any tips please let me know.
I can feel the urge to cry, I feel like behind my eyes is welling up but the tears won't come out or when they do it's as if I forcibly squeezed out one/two tears which feels incomplete
Hi all,
I wanted to ask everyone some things about your personal approach to photography to get a discussion going. Three questions for you today.
-
What is your mindset when shoot?
-
How many usable images do you feel you get per roll? (2.1 are you happy with this?)
-
Does the answer to q1 effect q2?
I'll post my thoughts around this and the story that made me think about this in the comments below. I'd love to hear anyone's thoughts.

Hi all, I'm about to develop my first roll of film ever. Before I crack into it I want to ask some questions to make sure I have everything straight
The developer I purchased is called r09 spezial and comes in a 120ml bottle with recommendations to dilute 1:15. For my film (Ilford hp5) the packaging says I should develop for 4 minutes so I was going to aim for that. The fixer I have is Ilford rapid fixer. For the stop bath I was just going to use water. My house is currently 15C degrees instead of the 20C degrees the chemicals ask for so I was going to try and do a water bath for all the chemicals.
Here are my questions:
- 1:15 dilution is awkward to work out in my head but I think that
Hi all,
I'm scanning some of my negatives for the first time. I was wondering if it matters which way I scan the film?
I'm using a HP Scanner G3110 which is a flat bed style scanner. It has a slot in the lid that you can slide a film holder into. When you close the lid this puts the negatives in their holder down on the glass.
I can see there are two sides to the negatives, one is shinier and the other more matte.
My question is does it matter if the shiny surface or matte surface of the negative faces the glass of the scanner? Or does it not really matter?
Also any other general tips on scanning would be appreciated.
I found my granddad's old camera recently. When I found it I tested it by dry firing it at different shutter speeds and all seemed to be working fine. The curtain moved out of the way and then back into the way like normal and the different shutter speeds sounded audibly longer/shorter as i cycled through them.
After my tests I was excited and went out and bought the cheapest film my camera shop had to test for light leaks etc before doing any serious shooting.
The roll came back empty. Ive never had this happen before. The negative strip is entirely empty apart from one blob of slightly darker colour. Link to photos: https://imgur.com/gallery/22sSb08

You know those people that the first time you meet them you get a funny feeling about them, like something isn't quite sitting right. Yeah I had that feeling from the very first time I met this guy.
Here is a list of some of the things my gremlin of an exhousemate did:
-
first major one was that he organised a coup within the house to get myself and one other roommate evicted. This is a long story for another day but he was such a little toad, there is still nobody I hate more than him years on.
-
organised another coup to kick out a roommate whilst I was there simply because she was the only woman in the house and they didn't get along. He sincerely said he wanted her gone because he co
Hi I live in Ireland and am considering buying a Redmi 5 Plus to replace my failing iPhone 5c. Before I pull the trigger on the purchase I wanted to ask some questions here in the hopes somebody can help clarify some things for me first. Please keep in mind I'm new to the Xiaomi universe so would appreciate any input you may have.
My first concern is that I'm getting the right phone, Xiaomi don't make it easy for first time buyers with their confusing naming structure (eg. Redmi 5, Redmi 5 Plus, Redmi Note 5 Pro, Redmi Note 5A, Redmi Note 5 Prime).
Here is a [link to the exact phone I was going to buy](https://thesolutionshop.global/product/redmi-5-plus-4gb-64gb/?attribute_pa_cb5feb1b73146
Hey so I'm in milan until Sunday and I wanted to pick up a pair of kicks that I couldn't find in a shop back in Ireland. Where stocks good stuff in this city, what are the shops to visit?
Also if anyone is in milan for design week, what exhibitions have you seen/what would you recommend hitting up or skipping over?
If I can't find any cool sneakers that really catch my eye over here I'll probably buy something that reminds me of Italy like a pair of diadorras or silver bullet air maxes. Are there any sneakers that scream milan or Italy to you? Feel free to share, I'm open to inspiration.
I want to know everyones thoughts on thrifting. I personally love it but a lot of my friends are very against it. Some because of a stigma associated with second hand clothes where I'm from and some because it takes too much time and they'd rather just buy online but maybe you have different thoughts. Let me know down below.
I love nothing more than having a day to myself and doing nothing but a lap of all the local shops. If you find me in a giant unsorted rail of cheap clothes I'll definitely have a smile on my face. Thrifting has been key for me in developing my style as it has given me opportunities to try out things I may not have otherwise been able to afford or have come across in th
