Thanks. I did use the handbrake and kept gear in Neutral. Haven't had any probs since but haven't been stuck in that kind of traffic on hill though.
Thanks for your advice!

Gauge seems fine. Were you slipping the clutch instead of using your handbrake and putting it in neutral?
From your description it sounds as if you're burning out your clutch plate. Change your driving style if necessary.
