Assuming you're talking fixed wing - requirements to re-validate are
12 hours in the 12 months preceding expiry date
12 take offs and landings
1 hour dual instruction (with signature from instructor)
If you've met these criteria then you're OK as far as the currency goes, but I believe that you should have presented yourself and the evidence to the FI/E so that he/she can sign off your revalidation BEFORE the actual date of expiry. There is a form that is required to be filled in and submitted to the CAA before your expiry date. Can't remember the form number and haven't got one to hand.
If it's rotary it's a whole different ball game.
