Julie, are you on Facebook? I see a lot ads on there and it tells how to place an ad. I don't know what it costs tho.

Thank you, I'm just glad you like the look of them. I live in Cambridge now, I lived near Swansea for the first 20 years of my life but I'm afraid I never came across any Martins - Thomas, Jones, Evans..... yes

And Julie I wish I could help you in your venture,but I have no expertise in that field.

Pardon my stupidity. I thought it was something like that but wasn't sure. Do you live in Wales now? I have been trying to track down the Martins who came from Wales in the 1700's with no luck. Do you know any Martins there now? I am on a genealogy site, but have never seen the name Martin, so I am wondering if they went by another name there

expat is just short for expatriate, so newspapers aimed at Welsh or British people living in the States.

I don't know of any " expat" newspapers, in fact I don't know what that means. The satchels are lovely.

Yes, most of the satchels I have sold over there have been to trendy adults (media usually, or cyclists - they have the backpack satchel). I should have put my website on so you can see them: www.cambridgesatchel.co.uk I think I remember a paper called The Union Jack or something like that when I lived in Rockford, IL. Any expat newspapers that anyone knows of?

Julie, Most American kids use backpacks today. I am not sure what your satchels are like,but I am sure they are nice. Marilyn Martin Mort, Warsaw,In

My first satchel came from Sidney Heath in Swansea, you could get them anywhere but not now. So after trying on and off for two years to find a satchel for my daughter I started my little business, called The Cambridge Satchel Company. I want to get noticed in America but the market is so big over there that I don't know where to start, especially since I'm such a long way away and it's been years since we lived over in America. Any websites recommended? or expat shops? I'd really appreciate your thoughts, diolch, JuliePS I have lovely red satchels and have a dragon stamp I use to emboss a silver dragon!
