Cheers for your help. From the research I've done over the last few days, I'm going to try and get a Contax T2. maybe an olympus xa or mji II if they are cheap too.
If autofokus is an option for you then definately consider Mju-II, Espio mini, T3 & T4, and (somewhat my favourite 35mm point-and-shoot) the Nikon L35AF !
All (except for the T4) can be had cheap.
Lots of good suggestions, I've made a list of what to look out for. I may just buy a bunch, test them out and keep 1 or 2 I like the most and sell the rest when I get back
