sounds like it could be the clutch release arm / cable prob. Engine out job to take a look at the clutch but thats no hassle with a couple of people and the right tools, limp up to chez coxy tomorrow and whip it out.

Take a look under the car by the passenger rear wheel see if you can see anything dodgy looking in the clutch cable area.

At worse its gonna be an afternoons work and a few quid.

cool how much did you have to tighten it up by? if it was more than half an inch or so i'd personally be wanting to know why!
