Sorry, didn't mean to be negative.
Yes, up to you, I agree with the post above.
You should be able to get something here, but in all honesty, with those hours, weighing up the *effort* to convert here, your chances are better in Auz. or try NZ, your licence is valid there too.
Give the UKCAA a call, get them to post you the stuff so you can see what you have to do to convert.
