I do agree that currency is good, but I'm not so sure if 211 days absence is such a deal breaker regarding competence and safety, dependable upon experience.
I was absent for 573 days, jumped in, 4 circuits, asymmetric engine out, restart and in for the procedure at Southend. Probably the best landing that I've done since. I was maybe a little rusty than my usual, but nothing significantly noticed.
