1989 Dover Pageant in Connaught Park

For a few anxious moments at Connaught Park on Monday it seemed that the Dover Pageant's good luck with the weather would not hold. The greyness above seemed to become slighly blacker and the first drops of what threatened to be a downpour fell onto the already overburdened shoulders of the organisers. But the rain managed to stay away.
