Congratulations on passing. I finally passed my skills test last month after 20 months and 70 hours (don't you just love the British weather)!! In fact I got a partial as I completely messed up my PFL (it took me a LONG time to pick my field by which time I was VERY low and couldn't position into wind)
Went off a couple of weeks later to redo the PFL and this time it was better. My test was two and a half hours long as well, and I was absolutely shattered by the end. I think it's too long really, I had never flown that long before, even on my QCC.
Good luck to anyone who is waiting to take it.
