I think diver etiquette should be included in the basic or advanced diver courses?

No barging people off the shot line.

You say (you are going) you pay unless a replacement is found (which is primarily your own resposibility).

The relevance of your opinion is directly proportional to the number of cylinders you carry.

Women divers have to learn to fart properly to be accepted as divers.

If you don't like a bacon butty or a sausage sarnie you may never become a good diver.

Oh yes, length of YD service is very important.

There are some people, who simply forget, and when reminded pay up. I dont think there is anything wrong with this.

When someone has been reminded and still refuses to pay up thats when its out of order.

its not you Colin!

perhaps one will get cleared up if a member of the team reminds him

one looks like it will be a name and shame unless contact is made today

one will probably have to go further

True, but in my experience (more in life than on YD TBH) it's always the same people who 'forget'.

They often 'forget' again - or something else comes up
