I love just a splash of olive oil, a couple of drops of lemon juice, unsweetened yoghurt and some fresh chopped chives. Simple and good!

Mayo, sour cream, a sprinkle of sugar, chopped parsely, chopped gherkin, a little of the gherkin juice. If too thick you can add a little milk or cream.Make sure you have plenty of dressing as nothing worse than dry potato salad.

If you would like to make a real mayonnaise for your potato salad here is a basic recipe.It is very creamy;if you want it thinner you can add more lemon juice.
Mayonnaise (basic)
3 egg yolks 300 ml extra virgin olive oil juice of 1 - 2 lemons salt freshly ground pepper (preferably white)
All ingredients need to be at room temperature.
Whisk the egg yolks (use a hand whisk, or an electric whisk or a small food processor) until well blended and starting to thicken.Very gradually trickle in the oil, keep whisking and when you have added about a third of the oil it should be starting to thicken.As it thickens you can increase the rate at which you add the oil.
When it gets very thick add the juice of one lemon, this will thin it down.Add salt and pepper, continue to add the oil until you have a very thick mayonnaise.
Taste and adjust with more seasoning or lemon juice if it needs it.If it tastes too eggy it needs more salt.
You can vary this basic mayo by adding Dijon mustard or fresh garlic, chopped herbs, chopped capers, gherkins or anchovies.

To this I would also add some mint sauce. This is how we make our dressing.
