Default Recommend a lens

Morning,

I'm trying to resurrect my Canon 400D. I first ran it with a Sigma 18-50mm F/2.8-4.5 ( I think) which I really liked but I missed a bit of the zoom range. Then I got a sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 (I think) and whilst the zoom was great, the quality dropped a bit.
Then I was going away for a big trip and didn't have the room to carry an SLR, so the lens was sold and I got a point and shoot camera.

Can anyone suggest a decent "all in one lens"? I think I would be happy if the lens went up to 70 or 100mm zoom. How important are HSM motors and image stabilisation, I've never had a lens without them? Budget is about £200 second hand.
Fixed F2.8 aperture look above my budget, since I had one I think I would be ok with a f2.8-4.5, but I have to be honet, I don't remember many of the numbers...


Cheers
