I too have a Canon AE1, my first SLR & it is my trusted companion even after a quarter century!

Your best bet for old cameras like that is to look on eBay for instance
Canon FD Mount / AE-1 AE1 420-1600mm Telephoto Lens for only 104 pounds !

A search such as cannon telephoto will find lots of amazing bargains. Then get someone back home to post it out to you.
