camping lamps

Flash photography. Complete darkness help!?
Hi, I have a quick question for anyone who knows a bit about photography.
I often use my camera for outside photos of parties with friends. I’m based in a very dark area in the middle of nowhere and the only light source apart from my camera flash is a camp fire and one or two camping lamps. Its very dark! They complain that my flash is too harsh and I agree! I want to buy an attachable flash with a diffuser but I’m not sure where to start. I have a budget of around £200 and I have a Canon 450D. Can anyone help?
Why not check out the Gary Fong Puffer? It’s a diffuser that fits over your pop-up flash.
Google it.
Much less expensive (and far more portable) than an external flash.
