I get pestered by Magdalen every year. If you give in, they print your name in the college record (a thick tome sent to all old members once a year), sorted by how much you give (£1-£999 for me) and your year of matriculation. This year, I'm two names down from the Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer. I did notice that the guy who ran one of the AD&D campaigns I played in (with Stephen) was in the 'more than £25,000' category. Good bonus I guess...
Actually one year, I got called by some Magdalen student begging for money. By a series of amazing concidences, he happened to then apply to KPMG for vacation work, in Plymouth office, with me his interview. I remembered his name, and I think I threw him somewhat when I produced the letter he had sent me a year earlier begging for money! I gave the guy the job, although in truth he wasn't that brilliant once he started.
