Lapsed PPL!

OK Chaps, simple question, but i guess the answer isn't! 800hr lapsed PPL, last flight P1 7 years ago. What would i need to do to get a microlight rating if i bought my own plane? I still have one of the old CAA licenses and have the impression this EASA malarky has made things a whole lot worse, would that be the case, or simply impress an instructor enough to sign me off? I have friends who are commercial who can hire for the big trips, so i just want to be able to bimble along in a totally VFR microlight, probably Fixed wing? All info gratefully received. Thanks.
PS I am based Near Eastbourne.
