So the dog is like the taco bell dog. But this dog is not at all real? ---

Oh boy… Right, the company I work for is the UK’s second biggest general insurer, called Churchill. In a very British act of patriotism, our mascot is a British Bulldog, himself called Churchill the Dog. He appears in our adverts and promotional work, that kind of thing. Soul is right, the dog is actually very famous round in England. The main site is [www.churchill.com](http://www.churchill.com) which you’ve probably all seen by now, and that’s one of mine. Although we’re going to be changing it this year. We’ve also got [www.churchill.com/fun](http://www.churchill.com/fun) which is what Marketing are calling the ‘funsite’. It’s more about the dog, basically. We also do websites for NIG, CSG, Prudential, Nationwide bank and a few others, all of whom we own. ---

Nowhere near as much as I’m worth. 🙂 I just get an annual wage, so I don’t earn as much as I would if I did the same work only freelance. ---

We don’t get snow where I’m from but it did rain today… which is weird, since getting “real weather” of any kind is unheard of in Southern California. I want my money back. ---

It hasn’t snowed today, and it’s beginning to melt. So now we’re getting flood warnings. Go figure. ---

FLOOD WARNINGS. That is really sad. 2-4 cm of snow shouldn’t cause this much trouble. I guess we are just more use to it. ---

Ya we have 4-5 foot banks of snow in some places. Never heard of a flood warning from it. Heard of a basment flooding once though from melting snow. [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/snow/10789.md?page=2)
