Another Problem

Was driving along on a 70 road, and all of sudden in 5th gear after accelerating for a bit the car just lost all the pull and the revs were going up as if the clutch was slipping, however that can't be the problem as I've just had a new clutch put in like 4 weeks ago.
Any ideas of what it could be?
By the way there's no problem in the lower gears but only in the higher ones, the biting point is fairly a long way down and pulls off in 1st with no problem.

No idea, my guess would have been the other garage lied to me and me being up North at Uni having no chance of dropping by to give them a mouthful
