Also new here!

Welcome to R2R! What is the reefing scene like in the Netherlands, if you don't mind me asking?
Well I don't know exactly but since it's a small country and a fairly pricey hobby over here, I assume it's not that big in comparison to the US or the UK. I was at my local lfs yesterday with my old man and he asked one of the staff if the salt water hobby is growing of shrinking in his opinion. And the guy said that it was shrinking. Didn't give a reason but I can imagine that the costs have something to do with it... We do have a few forums over here but I find them not, ehm.. helpful? :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes: A bit ''Oh look at me I know everything better and my way is the only way'' kind of thing. So I'm hoping to find a more reasonable and helpful community over here ;)

From UK, stick around, I’m thick as syrup.
 
Thick as syrup, I don't know that one ;) What does it mean?
It means I’m not as clever as I think I am, lots it’s of folk fall into my category :)
