In case any one was wondering, the caa said all the info was on their site. I found this, which is interesting: (non more instrument requirement)

Ratings/Endorsements - Night Rating: Are there any changes to obtaining and
maintaining a Night Rating?

The night rating is now known as a Night Qualification, and the training requirement andchanges are as follows:

AEROPLANES:
5 hours night flying in aeroplanes, to include 3 hours dual ( including 1 hour navigation training) and 5 solo take-offs and full stop landings.The training may be completed at any time, and can now be completed as part of theJAR-FCL PPL(A) course.

The minimum flying experience before starting the course has been removed. The instrument
flying instruction has been removed.

Ratings/Endorsements - Night Rating: Can I transfer my night rating from my non-UK licence?

Yes, providing that you have met the minimum requirements for the new Night Qualification
detailed below. The PPL(A) Night Qualification requirements must include a minimum of 5 hours night flying training (including 3 hours night dual instruction, to include 1 hour of cross-country navigation, and 5 solo take-offs and full-stop landings.


So, it sounds like since I have done the required flying no mtatter where it was, I should be able to get a UK night qual.

I'll let you know if it works!
