Please excuse my ignorance as I am not mechanically minded.
Can you please tell me what size of socket is needed to remove a spark plug on my 67 plate Jimny.
Thanks.

My plug socket is marked 10mm, from auto store Halfords UK.
Not to be confused with a 10 socket which is for M6 fittings and much smaller.
Yokohama Geolanders, Sony head unit, NAUTILUS Air Horn, DRL conversion, Rear cargo space, Elvis Bobblehead, transfer Guard, Indian hanging Elephant, Koni Heavy track dampers, Custom SS exhaust, Voodoo Doll, Adventure Rack with LED ight bar, vintage ERIBA caravan usually attached (yes it's slow)

How far down into the head are the spark plugs on a Jimjam, it's a long time since I removed mine!
If they're further down than you can reach with your pinkies, a spark plug socket with a rubber insert to grip the plug to pull it out and then lower it into the thread straight to prevent cross threading is really useful.
