Compact, cheap(ish) scope?

Having got a little bit of a bug for star gazing again, I'd like to
purchase a compact scope for occasional use.
I have a cheap x60 spotting scope, which is fine for a quick view, but
is mainly useless with the amount of flare it produces.

Is there anything out there that woudl meet my reuirements?

The Skywatcher ED80 is a decent scope.

However, I think that the mount is more important
for your "viewing pleasure".
