In a time when many relationships are under some rather intense scrutiny, Sandi happens to spot a story in her Chamber's Book of Days, which may tempt a few people listening to replicate. It's the story of a public auction held by Joseph Thompson in order to sell his wife Mary-Ann. Now, no matter how you might be feeling towards your spouse, it's not the best solution to put them up for sale - the postage alone would cost a fortune. 

On further inspection, Sandi has discovered that this wasn't the only tale of an ungrateful husband putting their wife up for sale, as it was seen as an easier and cheaper alternative to dissolving a marriage. It's almost as if women had no human rights at all, so thank goodness for the toils of Flora Tristan and if you don't know who she is, then Sandi is here to remedy that in this episode, as well as suggesting a small project for someone out there who may want to enable the world to have more access to information about Flora and what she did. 

Enjoy and don't forget ...We Will Get Past This.
