Can I pwease pick your brains? :)

This year I've got at least 3 week long trips planned doing outdoor stuff abroad... and I'd like a nice camera to capture all these moments!

I'm not after one with lenses etc, as all of my trips need my stuff to be light & fairly robust... so I guess I'm looking for a normal digital camera and not a dSLR?

I'm also not after amazing quality images, but something fairly decent would be nice

Budget: <£100 (less the better!)
Don't mind 2nd hand

Thanks

You could get a dust/water/drop proof one to be very rugged, £100 is pushing it though i think maybe look at last years models, pentax do one like this since my mate has one and he is THE most useless person for looking after cameras.

Otherwise i'd say see what canon IXUS you can afford, can't beat them price/performance, and i've dropped mine quite a lot and drunkenly and its been on the beach, and its still totally perfect!
