The UK CAA will accept the signature of an LBA JAA examiner - no problem.
Ensure the rating is signed BEFORE midnight on the day of expiry - and that the German examiner sends the paperwork to the UK CAA for your records to be updated.

Just part of the wonderful world of common rules that are not commonly applied.
JAR's require you to have done the necessary but make no stipulations as to how it is to be recorded. CAA is more prescriptive. The revalidation requirement is not dissimilar to the the 3 take-offs and landings in 90 days to carry passengers rule. No laid down requirement about how this is to be recorded, nor any requirement for an instructor or examiner signature, it's left to your own common sense to record number of landings if you do them all in one flight, however the UK CAA has heaped a raft of additional requirements on in the case of your revalidation flights. They just can't resist adding their own embuggerance factors to what's been agreed internationally.

No, you do not need to send your logbook to the CAA (ever) for revalidation or renewal.
Get your rating page (FCL150) signed in your licence before midnight on the day of expiry of the rating - then get the examiner who signed it to complete http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/FORSRG1119.PDF and mail it to the CAA (with NO FEE!!) for the authority to update your records on their computer.
Game over.
By the way: I fly every year with three different German pilots who are based in the USA. Every one of them brings the German paperwork (almost identical) with them, downloaded from the internet, to mail to the LBA after our flight(s).

As a point of interest the UK CAA did not want to collect revalidation data but were told by the JAA that they had to do so. I believe that other States were told the same. Germany is unique in that the National Authority did not administer private pilots pre JAA.
