I enjoy reading all the stories that people post here about skills tests (or first solos, or first lesson, or QXCs, or anything else!) But congratulations to left_hand_drive on one of the most enjoyable reads for ages!
Can't fault any of the advice you give, and it sounds like you're well on your way to getting back into flying - whether you were over-examined as BEagle suggests, or not!
