There isn't?! DOH!

I had done 3 of them previously (Principles of Flight, Radiotelephony and Aircraft General Knowledge) but was told by the CAA I had to do all 9 again to get a PPL - my skills test is on Saturday (hopefully) so fingers crossed it'll be done. I suppose the main reason for doing it was to become a better pilot rather than actually needing the PPL.
