Can anyone recommend a teacher in Edinburgh (Scotland)?

I know there are at least a couple of locals on TB, so any suggestions are welcome! I had a couple of lessons when I first picked up a bass (about 10 years ago now) where I was introduced to 1-2-4 fingering and the German bow grip, and have been mostly self taught since then. I now feel that I'd like to work at improving my technique a bit, and could do with some direction. Ideally, it would be somebody with a strong jazz background, though I understand the need for some arco work too. There are certainly some great bassists in town, but i don't know if any of them teach.
