Vicky and Howard are convinced that the only reason David likes motorsport is for the 'food of the Gods' on offer in the paddocks.
'Come away now, David. It's only just gone 11:30am!'
'But I'm suddenly hungry, Vic'.
Open Class riders get ready to race.
Joe Burns (second rider from the camera) broke the lap record later in the afternoon on his Superstock Kawasaki ZX10R.
Interesting 'bikes on display.
An ex-Sete Ducati, an ex-Kenny Yamaha (not convinced that the 'Kenny' we have in mind rode a Yam 250cc in those colours), and an ex-Leon Ducati.
Yamaha 250cc in AMA colours but too modern, surely, to be one of Kenny's.
Lovely 'bike tho', whoever rode it back in the day.
Howard and some fellow lucky mascots.
Reg Squire about to parade his 1985 Honda RS125.
It's one o'clock and time for lunch, dum-de-dum-de-dum.
Vicky has the penne pasta with roasted peppers and tomatoes with salad and, um, David doesn't (and he had a sneaky beef pasty from another paddock outlet an hour ago to 'keep him going').
Yes, but you need fuel for the 2 mile walk 'round the circuit in the prickly heat, Vic.
Note David's chewing gum keeping 'fresh' for future use on the side of his bowl. Classy.
Vicky is impressed by this diversified business.
RAF Red Arrows Fly-Past as a tribute to Simon Andrews, Karl Harris, and Bob Price.
The Red Arrows were here.
Chris Martin exits Bobbies on his Honda RS 250 on his way to winning the ACU 250GP National Championship race.
We can only hope they're not hay fever sufferers.
This is Paul Jeffrey on his 600 Yamaha at the entry to Tower Corner.
Oh yes, he's feeling clever now after his pasty followed up with curry and rice but he wont be feeling so clever when Vicky puts him on starvation rations for the rest of the weekend, oh no.
Novice riders choose differing lines at The Esses.
Whose clever idea was it to walk all the way 'round the circuit in this prickly heat, Vic?
Yours, Dave.
Oh.
All circuits have features for which they are forever associated with and Castle Combe has its pylons.
Approaching 4:30 now and we are very tired and thirsty.
We can see food and drink outlets ahead, or is that a mirage?
If not, we'll have one more drink and then back home for tea (as long as Vicky reminds Dave to turn north up the M5 and not head straight on into Wales).
