Lots of sound advice there for getting back to basics. With the modern kit you can make it ever so much easier without having to do your 3 times table as well as hand fly the beast. As JF has said us mere males aren't so good at multitasking.
If you're practising in the sim and the man in the back has kindly left you the flight path track flight path vector display, then use the map range ring to fly your downwind 3 miles abeam (assuming 1500 agl). You can nail the drift by flying a track the reciprocal of the runway track adjust in or out as you wish by using the wind vector. Timings as before, 45 seconds at 1500' agl, 30 at 1000 etc. If the wind isn't severe then not correcting for a tailwind whilst downwind will put you under the final glide slope, which is much easier to deal with than being too close and above the slope. Configure as you need but as said before, 15 - 20 degrees angle of bank with a rate of descent 700 - 800 feet per minute should see you slotted in nicely.
In our company all captains are right hand seat checked each sim by flying engine failure after takeoff, visual circuit, (normally) late missed approach, single engine go around and another visual circuit to land. Apart from all the knobs and switches being in the "wrong" place, it's normally quite relaxed and good fun. As the man said, enjoy.
