everything mate: driving it normally, booting it and from idle...

yet sometimes it will go for like 30 mins and not cut out, other times will cut out 3 times in as many minutes?

In that case it's either that your not getting fuel at all (randomly) like if the fuel pumps cutting out (pink realy maybe), or it's an ignition problem like your dizzy, coil, the green wire that runs from the coil to the ECU has a bad connection/break, or king lead etc...
