Don't really know it, but what about Old Sarum? Bit of a drive, but not too far and I've heard reports that they're more of a friendly club.
Welcome Delta Mike.
In practice, I've only managed about 2 lessons per month, with the odd extra one thrown in from time to time. It's not too bad. I have found if I have to miss a lesson for one reason or another that it can take a few minutes to get back into things, but everyone has good and bad lessons anyway so it could just be attributed to that. I know many articles on learning to fly suggest at least one lesson per week, but it really depends on how good you are at learning and remembering things. I fill in between lessons with the odd session of FS2004 - has its limits, but good for recall of key points. The British Airports and Photo-scenery add-ons help. And when you can't fly, there's always those exams to read up on!
If you look at some of the earlier posts, you'll see we had some discussion about the landing flare. It seems to be a sticking point for many people and probably the best bit of advice I've heard is just to keep looking further along the runway than you're probably comfortable with! Hopefully, someone can give you more specific help on the Cessna.
