  I bet if we'd told you back last year that we'd have an air display for this year, many will have scoffed!

  Hopefully the fine weather will stay for the forthcoming music festival starting in a couple of days and for the Regatta the following weekend.

  Strange they chose the same date that Deal, Walmer & Kingsdown start their Regatta week.

  Very good turnout by the public of Dover the event is very good to and added to that some great live music as always Mal Harris was at his best and followed up by a Xfactor runner up of 2006 also very good .
  So get down there lots to see and do right up till 1800hrs.

  It looks like everyone is having a good time all thanks to the organisers hard work. Despite many coastal towns choosing the same weekend to put on their events they always seem to draw their own supporters in surprisingly large numbers.
  
  The hot spell must be a bonus too.
  Do nothing and nothing happens.

  Great vent and well attended - I would like to see ti moved back to August however.
  
  As Jack points out, it clashes with the Deal Regatta week, and it would be nice to space out these big Dover events a bit more, with the Music Festival having made such a promising debut..
  
  I think the Regatta had one bad year with the weather in August and decided to move it.
