GS-Alpha, I did my PPL a while back now but got through in minimum time and it took 5 weeks from start to finish. I never flew at weekends and Feb-March wx weather in the UK put paid to a few days flying.
Having your background you will probably be up to speed very quickly as you only really have the handling to learn as a new skill set. I taught a high time ATPL(A) pilot part of his ppl(H) and he was hovering in an hour and could pretty much do everything I showed him at the first attempt. He was good, and I am below-average according to my examiner.
Funnily enough, the same guy taught me parts of my IR(H).
have fun with the training. Nice to see someone coming across from the dark side.
