Great job! Don't worry about the 90 hours thing. I needed about 79. That's what happens when you stretch your PPL out over two-and-a-half years and take a whole year off training in the middle.

Yeah, the checkride itself was pretty uneventful, even 'easy.' The oral was simple, the flight was pretty routine. It wasn't nearly as hard as i thought.
