What are your country’s unsuspecting affluent / deprived cities?

I recently learned of Oude Pekela, which is apparently one of the poorest places in the Netherlands, even though the pictures on Wikipedia looked nice enough.
That got me curious: far from the stereotypical rich & poor areas (like St Tropez or Roubaix in my country), what are your country’s inconspicuous affluent & deprived areas?

Bonjour amis jardiniers,

Un sujet plantes d’intérieur mais j’aurais vraiment besoin de vos lumières. Mon oiseau de paradis que je pensais mort refait une nouvelle feuille. C’est inattendu et inespéré, après des mois de feuilles desséchées, et la perte d’un des deux « pieds ».

Que puis-je faire pour lui assurer les meilleures chances de reprise? Je suis prêt à tout.

La plante est dans une véranda, exposée nord, qui va être de plus en plus chaude avé la montée des températures.

Au passage, c’est une des plantes avec lesquelles j’ai le plus de mal. Aussi si vous pouvez m’expliquer comment ils font en jardinerie pour avoir des plants magnifiques dans des pots ridiculement petits ça m’intéresse.

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide!!

Good evening y’all,

Since my breakup in December and my return on the dating scene, I (32M) never go past the second date. We and the other girl meet, and even though the date went well, every time I’m hit with the same old “I have thought about this carefully…”where the person says that there is basically no feeling.

It could be fine, I happened to be the one not feeling it in the past, but recently it’s starting to take a serious toll on me. No later than a few hours ago, I received this kind of message, from someone I was really interested in.

Of course I appreciate her telling this, instead of simply ghosting. But because of this feeling of never making the cut, and impulsiveness, I’m just at a loss for words and don’t know what to answer.

The easy part is I want to say that I knew there was something fishy and was expecting this kind of text sooner or later. The hard part is saying that I am bitter because the girl was my kind, and I was eager to get to know her more, but I don’t want to sound pitiful and miserable. I also don’t want to sound too aggressive, something that I have issues with.

And with the current state of affairs, I have the feeling that any advice you can give me on this one case will be useful for the future rejections I may face in the future.

Many thanks, and appreciate all your ideas and insights .

Moien!

While cleaning the bar, I found this old bottle of eau-de-vie. I got curious and googled the name, but couldn’t find any info about the distiller located in Scheidgen.

Does anyone happen to know about this company? Did they close? Were they bought?

Not the post of the year, but I’ll welcome any insights. Thanks!
