Great. Looks like I misloaded the trip with the Electra 100 twice. Thought I'd got some good pictures yesterday in another gloriously sunny day but nope. Film hadn't caught properly. Brain didn't even register the rewind lever not turning correctly. Happily snapped away for nearly a whole roll of nothing. Reloaded it for the third time. The leader was through the take up spool but it just didn't grab on for some reason. I thought it had but nope. Arrghhh. Can now see other spool turning.

    @serichards I once did the opposite, loaded a film, advanced a frame or two, why isn't the spool side turning, popped back open, oh loaded correctly, was taking up the slack, lost a couple of frames off the start of the roll 🤦
