Hours towards a PPL

Hey guys...

I am really trying to work out how to do this PPL thingy, on a shoestring. Not by choice, but everytime I think I have some money saved, a bill comes through the door!!!

Anyway I have some Vigilant hours clocked, about 11 hours, with about an hour or so of that solo. These hours date from 1996.

Then I have 16.5 hours dual and 3.5 hours solo on a Cessna 152, from an RAF Flying Scholarship done in 1999. From this I also have passes in Aviation Law, Human Performance and Aeroplane General Part 1 - I am assuming I can not use the exams and would have to resit, is there not an 18 month rule form total completion of the exams or something?

I also have a few trial lessons and a few Air Cadet AEFs to add as well, but these total an hour or two.

Does anyone think I would be able to count any of these towards a PPL? Or have they "expired"?

Thanks

J
