All great advice, thank you. I'll take all of it on and see what happens when i go in for my landings this week.
@Slippery_Pete - Love the advice about not forcing the aircraft to land, i'm almost certain that's what i've been doing.
@John_Tullamarine - With all of my landings so far i have had fairly strong crosswinds, which is probably part of the problem. Not that i mind, but would i probably be shocked if i ever landed without crosswind! My most recent landing, i was crabbing on my approach which likely had me somewhat disorientated.
The airport is on the coast and all my landings so far have in the late afternoon, early evening.
I might try, like you said, flying first thing when there's barely any wind and see if it works out any better.
