Hi Bacabob, welcome to the feathercoin community :) Please feel free to add yourself to the map [url=http://local.feathercoin.com]local.feathercoin.com[/url]
We do have a few members here from the Nethrelands so you’re not alone and you’re always with like minded people here on the forum.
A few of visited Amsterdam early Nov for a Bitcoin Conference that we were invited to but then it was cancelled, however we came anyway and met some really nice people and with Pikapay and Chrisj from our forums held a mini conference at Knowmads Business School. It was a great week of meeting lots of Bitcoiners :)
Are you solo mining? If so you really should get yourself onto a pool for mining.
If you need here are some useful guides [url=http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php/topic,5174.0.html]http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php/topic,5174.0.html[/url]
Make yourself at home and hope to see you around :)
