I never laugh until I’ve had my coffee: Clark Gable

I feel this is a particularly appropriate quote for a Sunday morning when I had to set my alarm at 5.45 in the morning because my son had to be at a go karting track by 8am. I certainly didn’t do any laughing (or indeed feel human) until I’d had at least 2 cups of coffee. I was fine for a while, but I’m seriously starting to flag now. The Grand Prix is about to start so I might settle down on the sofa and sleep watch that.

On a different note, I loved this photo of Clark Gable sans moustache. It was a studio publicity shot, although I’m not sure from when, presumably it’s early if he hadn’t got his trademark ‘tache yet. He’s a fine-looking chap but it really was that Clark Gable moustache which made him something special wasn’t it?

Right, I’m off to catch some zzzzzs. Happy Sunday everyone!
