M26 valves

further to this, i've written to my meps as well. apparently i have
seven of em, only one of which i've heard of before (and tht only
because he was in eastenders). if you want to do the same then head to
this site to track them down... http://www.europarl.europa.eu/member...do?language=EN

Fortunately they have changed this. It's been suggested on another forum
that all you need to do to comply with the regulations is get a CE marked
adapter for your tanks. Put it on when the dive shop fills it, then take
it off and put your regs on it as normal. Since the regulations only apply
to the shop, you're fully compliant. Whether the shops will go along with
this is another matter, but it does show what a farce the whole thing is.

And it also apparently only applies to nitrox as they forgot to include
trimix.
