Can easily be 8 speed with a wide ratios and friction shift (11-28 with 42t chainring).

That, Mr Scoble, is a good idea. Can you recommend a derailleur?
Will prob stick with the 39 ring on the front too. These are some steep hills.

Any 9-speed Shimano will be perfectly happy on 8-speed too, or RD-2400 Claris is native 8-speed and under £20

Any derailleur really, at the moment the Shimano Sora rear is quite cheap in Wiggle. .

Mate it with a 11-32, with the 39t inner I reckon you got enough range, very similar to a typical road bike with a 28t cog and 34t inner.
