I was about to wander down to the Gatwick Joke Factory to trade-up my UK-PPL for a JAR-PPL.
But they may have "saved"* you some money in the long run by delaying you with the language objection. Why did you want a JAR-PPL? If you get one now, you'll pay for a new licence now and then you'll pay a re-issue fee to obtain an EASA PPL in 2017. If you wait til at least July, you'll pay once for an EASA PPL that won't expire in 2017. Is there some reason for wanting a JAR-PPL?

(* I do acknowledge the weasel-wording-ness of using the word "saved" in that context)
