THIS week's photo flashback takes us back to 1986 when Top Gun and Crocodile Dundee were packing people in at the movies.

The Communards hit top spot with 'Don't Leave Me This Way' while diva Diana Ross mirrored their success by taking Chain Reaction to number one.

The song perhaps inspired these Millport ladies as they showed their mettle by taking part in a tug of war in the Garrison grounds during the festival weekend.

A Largs golf competition saw the prizes handed out in the sunshine and Largs Academy's fifth and sixth year pupils also lined up in the assembly hall for the News photographer.

The 1986 Brisbane Queen Sharon McMullen paid a visit to Brooskby Day Care Hospital in Largs to see it in action, with staff joining Sharon and her entourage on the visit.

Finally Largs Operatic were in good voice at their annual Burns Supper.
