we have a large park near the flat, and water called the Vecht you can camp there with a camper and everything is nearby for everyone's enjoyment.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have a youth centre in the neighbourhood and they really try to bring the neighbourhood, old and young, together, but it's still a bit difficult, unfortunately. They organised a BBQ where more than 30 people were expected, but that didn't happen; people had signed up and didn't come. This is not nice for the youth either. At the end of the year, in October, they want to organise something else, and in the new year a New Year's drink. The youth are willing, nothing to complain about, but the older people, that can be a problem sometimes.

So that you have a bit of control that nothing is wrong. And if the sign hasn't been moved and you haven't seen the person for a day, you ring the bell to check if anything is wrong.
