Pentax Bridge Camera?

The X70 and X90 were excellent bridge cameras. Although now discontinued, you might well find some second hand examples.
An alternative might be the diminutive and excellent Pentax Q, perhaps in the two lens kit that includes an 8.5mm f1.9 standatd prime plus a 5-15mm standard zoom.

You can still find the X90 new from several online retailers including
play.com - £299
amazon - £269
Used tend to go for around the £150 mark - but as one of our members discovered recently - you can occasionally get a real bargain!

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

That's a bargain by the looks of it, although the picture of the camera is weird and distorted.
If you're lucky that might put people off long enough for you to snatch it up.
