No spare tubes or pump with us.

Oh well, had a nice walk in the country side, if you ignore the blisters.

We did. My dad came and picked us up. He was at the gym though so we walked for over an hour first.

So what tyre/tube combo would people recommend to avoid this happening again?
It's an oldish Pug 10 speed so weight isn't really an issue.
