Hi Michelle

I've done a bit of searching on google for Baltic Trade and come up with some interesting sites. You might want to have a wee look if you've not done this already. In times past Scotland did a huge amount of her trade with the Baltic countries. This is the search string I used: "baltic" cargo trade history Scotland

Some of the results:-
