Air conditioning not cool?

I have completed 100,000 miles in my car and am generally pleased. A few weeks ago I noticed that the air con was not working very well.

It is ok at outside temepratures up to say, 22C but over that temperature the air coming in does not feel very cool.

I regassed it at 50 000 miles and again last week - at a Ford main dealer. That last regassing has made no difference. Any ideas?

You might have a leak somewhere, or the pump is on its last gasp. If the pump clutch had failed you haver no a/c at all, so can't be that.
