Welcome to the forum spotty,

I purchased a spotmatic the other day for the 55/1.8 lens that was sitting on it. I have had a little play without any film in it - a well built camera.

It is now an ornament on my shelf :-)

well built it is. you should use it some time.

that would require me to remember how to load film - it has been a very long time since I did...........

It would also probably start me down a road that would end with a Leica M4 or 6 and a handful of hideously expensive lenses - I have been trying to avoid walking that road....
