mintty - changing colours when logging in to remote host

[Gary .]

Is it possible to change the colour scheme when connecting to a remote
system, to remind me where I am actually "running"? I know locally
might not be the right way to do it, in an ideal situation, but the
account on the remote host is shared and I don't want to do anything
on that side that affects other users.
