I appreciate this is a long shot, but where better to ask than here 
In the 1990s I had a cheap 35mm compact camera. I can't remember what it was, but I am trying to track down the make and model. Can anyone think of a camera that meets these specs:
I owned this camera before I was interested in photography, just for holiday snaps as a teenager. I don't think I threw it away when I got my first digital camera, but I turned over my parents' house this Christmas and couldn't find it anywhere. They deny getting rid of it too!
If anyone can suggest cameras that fit this description then I'd be extremely grateful. I've spent a couple of hours looking at pictures of 35mm compacts online but I can't see mine.

- Basic 35mm compact
- Purchased new in early 90s from Dixons (UK) for probably about £10
- It had a brand name I'd heard of before, but not one of the major manufacturers. Maybe Miranda etc?
- Similar in appearance to the Canon Snappy LX
- Black plastic with blue/green trim
- Fixed focus lens
- Manual film advance
- Large viewfinder
- No auto-exposure (fixed shutter & aperture)
