PC Pro
’s most loyal reader?
My grandfather Brian has been an avid reader of PC Pro ever since I can remember. Reading through your magazines and chatting about the latest and greatest tech used to be a staple of my visits to him when I was growing up. When I went to university, he bought me a subscription for my birthday so that we could both keep up with the PC Pro A-Lists and reviews. We did notice as a family that he had a tendency to keep copies of PC Pro stacked up around the house, only for them to eventually disappear, we had presumed to the recycling centre. Brian sadly passed away in October aged 92. This prompted a foray into the attic in search of memories and photo albums, followed quickly by the discovery of several rather heavy unlabelled boxes. Upon opening them, we discovered that he had kept every single copy of PC Pro magazine ever since the first edition in November 1994, neatly boxed in number order.
I wonder if this garners him the honour of being your longest-serving non-stop subscriber! At the very least, he was certainly one of your biggest fans.
