Surely signing yourself as a member of the "UK Deep wreck Diving Team" 
(whatever that is) is as bad as diving 45m on trimix. It is nearly as 
presumptuous as Simon Moores' infamous "we in Europe" statement. Perhaps 
you haven't noticed that a **LOT** of divers in the UK (and the rest of 
the world for that matter) have been diving 'deep' wrecks for many a 
year/ decade, using the latest equipment/ techniques of the day, long 
before someone invented the term 'technical diving'. Your implication 
that 'your' team is the only one that has/ does dive 'deep' wrecks in 
the UK is rather insulting to me, and I would suggest to rather a lot of 
other UK divers past and present.
