Our Office Manager and friend Carole Forsythe marks 30 years with John Preston Healthcare Group today!

We want to thank her for her contribution to our business and mark our appreciation for all that she does.

In addition to managing all aspect of our office, she has worked alongside so many of our customers, suppliers and manufacturers for over three decades.

As in any business, there have been significant changes in the last 30 years in how people manage businesses with major advances in technology, communication and IT systems.

What has remained the same is the principles of how to look after customers and suppliers properly and Carole demonstrates her expertise on a daily basis.

Thank you to Carole from everyone within the John Preston Healthcare Group and here is to another 30 years!

While we are at it - let's have a look at what the world was like in 1986!

This was #1 in the UK singles charts:

This is the title song of the #1 UK album

The top box office movie in the USA on this date featured this absolutely classic scene!

And maybe the best quote from Stinger - " Don't screw around with me Maverick. You're a hell of an instinctive pilot. Maybe too good.

I'd like to bust your butt but I can't. I got another problem here. I gotta send somebody from this squadron to Miramar. I gotta do something here, I still can't believe it. I gotta give you your dream shot! I'm gonna send you up against the best. You two characters are going to Top Gun."

Classic.

Another amazing movie was just released on this date in 1986 - Ferris Bueller had his day off ( in Northern Ireland one might refer to this as ' Being on the Beak ' with no chance of a Hollywood movie ).

In the mad, bad wide world of sport the World Cup was being played in Mexico. This tournament featured two of the most famous goals ever scored - both scored in the same match by the same little Argentinian genius.

In fashion and style, it was generally agreed that this was a good look;

Meanwhile here in Northern Ireland other things were going on but we kept our spirits up easily.
