Default Canon A1 coming

When I first picked up a digital camera, not for one minute did I think I'd ever pick up a film cam again, let alone be excited by it, but I've just ordered a 30year old A1 with a lowly 50mm 1.8 lens and can't wait until it gets here
The last film camera I had was a Canon T90 and was tempted to go there again, but they have LCD's on the top plate and they get a bit untrustwothy after 10 years, so this time I went for that ones daddy.

Going to use it exclusively for black and white and probably stick with that lens, I may fork out the exra few shillings for a f1.4 but this even has the commemorative 1980 winter olypics lens cap - how flashy's that?
