Clutch could be getting too hot, I had the same problem on my old 206, just ask your mechanic at the garage tomorrow see what he says

problem may be the loose nut behind the steering wheel then.. or if its a cable clutch I would look at the cable. If it stops slipping when you lift the pedal it may be partially seized,,,,, if its a hydraulic clutch then I would opt for lubricating the pedal pivot first.
I am sure someone will come along and tell you which it is... cable or hydraulic

Ye, auto-adjusting cable would be highly likely.
