Hello and welcome to today's episode in which Sandi spares a thought for the much maligned mistresses who would have been suffering during quarantine. Social distancing and isolating would mean it's impossible for so many to be with the ones they love, even if the relationship is common knowledge - imagine how hard it will be for those deemed 'the other woman' to see their sweetheart ... even if their sweetheart is clearly a wrong'un to have the 'other woman' in the first place.
There have been many famous mistresses in history, but many others are just mere footnote. And unfortunately the mother of one of history's most celebrated polymaths is one such footnote and only awarded the dubious title of 'Renaissance Mum' .. sounds like a bad sitcom.
Enjoy and remember ... We Will Get Past This.
