Clutch gone on 75 CDT-pedal on floor

Can anyone recommend a garage in the Glasgow area to look at the clutch- I've looked at various posts on the site and I don't think I'd be able to even tackle bleeding the clutch myself.The breakdown guy thinks it's probably the dreaded master cylinder which according to receipts was replaced Sept '07 along with the clutch.I'd be grateful for any help!Apologies if I've posted in the wrong place as this is my first post!

Google XPart or Good Garage Scheme.

Wave goodbye to the best part of a grand for the work too.

Thanks to all for suggestions.Sorry for the late reply-was away for the weekend( borrowed car).I have put the car into a garage near Hogganfield Loch(Glasgow area) and the mech impressed me with his knowledge of 75.He'going to bleed it 1st but thinks it's probably the slave as this wasn't replaced when the rest of the clutch(inc. master) was done in Sept '07.Cheers again for your help-great site!
