Looking at Conti Double Fighter or Schwalbe City Jet . Anything else for not much cash ?
I've always had these

for some reason the one with the relective white strip is cheaper than the one without at the mo. If they are more in the shop just point out it's cheaper online and they'll match it.
I used to use these [url= http://www.tredz.co.uk/.WTB-All-Terrainasaurus-Comp-Tyre_42313.htm ]wtb[/url] and they were ideal.
specialized nimbus armadillos work for me. I've worn out two pairs (over a good few years) and the only puncture I've had was a broken bottle that went in one side and out the other.
I have got these for sale if you are interested?

They are practically puncture proof and very grippy as well.
i have a pair of brand new spesh fatboys if you fancy em. drop me an email as im willing to sell for tenner for the pair + postage.
That's a good offer ^.
Michelin Tracker from crc are pretty good.
Schwalbe big apples are lovely and plush. Pretty fast and you can use use your normal mtb tubes.
Continental city contact reflex. Or whatever contact variety is available.
Used to use the Speccy Nimbus, and I think they last longer and have better puncture protection, but the reflex strip is a reAlly good safety feature
Scwalbe Land Cruisers
Very cheap and I can't puncture them at 50psi
you could consider bontragers g1. Its a large volume, fast rolling, comfy, durable tyre for 21quid. Whats not to like.

Yep, ran a pair for 2 years without a single puncture.
Great tyres & last I checked two could be had for £23. 🙂
Another vote for land cruisers,bomb proof and cheap
Land cruisers look good 🙂 .... Looking for a tyre myself that will handle road, cycle tracks and a bit of off road over the Cambrian mountains as well .... Im riding from Aberystwyth to Birmingham over Xmas 🙂
Thanks for the info and sorry for the slight hijack 🙂
Thanks everybody done a deal for a pair of nearly new Nimbus for a tenner !
Land Cruisers will handle all that. Son2 had them on his 24" bike and never punctured despite riding Swinley, tow paths and the school run for a few years. Nephew 1 still hasn't punctured them, either!
