1m of the plastic flexible pipe as used for fish tank air pumps, push some stiff wire in one end, so you can bend it to form a hook - to enable to to hook onto the master cylinder. Get a large syringe from the chemists, pull the plunger out and fit the pipe where the needle fits.

plenty of newspaper on the carpet to catch the spills. Fill the syringe with DOT 4 the higher you raise it the faster it flows into the cylinder. Just keep filling until it drips onto the paper.

I carry my 'top up kit' in the boot, just in case. The bits might not be easy to come by if I'm stuck with no clutch at the side of the road

I know this has been discussed already, but may as well post it again. I think something like this is the way to go. I'm pretty sure I could make an eBay business out of it anyway.
