Hi
I have already set up a WordPress blog on our server, but would like to set up another wordpress blog.
Do I need to install another instance of MYSQL and another install of WordPress?
I have seen WordPress MU but this might be overkill for what I need, as for the futurer I can't see there being more than 5 blogs on the server

You do not need an extra MySQL.
You can make a separate database or even do it in the same database by giving the tables for the second blog a different prefix but if you have the option, I would go for separate databases.
Because then you can give each WordPress install its own directory and call them by index.php from the root or just the basic url www.example.com read about that here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory
