Was just wondering if you guys stateside have the pleasure of meeting Aleksandr Orlov. He is the star of one of our TV commercials for a car insurance comparison website. It has been a total success here with t-shirts etc being sold with Aleksandr on them. Have attached a link for you to see his 2 latest adventures. I think he is great which really shows that the Scottish Ambassador is still a big kid inside. Let me know if you think he is as cool as i do.

Pretty cool! You have the meerkat and we have the Geico Insurance Co. Lizard with the Australian accent.
So its official. I am a big kid. Only one reply out of all you guys. Thanks Papa Don.
PS Aleksandr is still a legend
I am a big Alexandr fan also, or more the genius behind the advertising, very memorable! I bet they have a lot of fun dreaming up the ideas for the next ad. As for their main competitor, I hate that 'Go Compare' one. My two year old started singing it the other day. Thankfully she has no need for a comparison website!

Thanks Warhawk. Was beginning to think I was needing a sense of humour transplant
I am a little late if posting on this, but that was pretty funny. I'll have to show it to my kids. I'm sure they'll get a laugh out of it.

Cheers guys! Knew you would like it
