Do you want to go off and do a that again?

Strange the different policies on T&Gs! My first solo was done after doing a few with my instructor. He mentioned his intention to me that he wanted me to solo by asking "do you want to go and do one of those again on your own?" Anyway all subsequent solos were touch and goes untill my nav exercises. This is in the UK though. Before first solo I was competent in go-arounds even anticipating when a go-around might be needed if there were 2 ahead in the circuit and I was downwind turning base for egzample. (the circuit was a tight one)
