Err - pardon me for asking, but when you say you're " 're-validating' your PPL after 11 years off", do you mean that you have a lifetime UK PPL whose validity has lapsed? If so, why on Earth did the Examiner conduct a PPL Skill Test rather than simply a renewal Proficiency Check?
If you have a UK PPL which has lapsed, I suggest that you do NOT apply for a JAR-FCL PPL, but stick with your UK one as is your right. Otherwise you'll have to pay another re-issue fee in 5 years time!
Congrats anyway; PM me if you need more clarification.
