Well there it is.

Checking with another mitochondrial source, one and a half of the signature mutations for Sephardim, right there. I say 'half' because it looks like there is a change in lettering with one that may be a mistake in data reporting, an incomplete rendering of the report or a transition point. To be sure I need to get the whole genome sequence done in a better format than this, because it is only partial right now and there are plenty of possible mistakes.

If this info's correct, the deduction could begin to be made that via my mother's maternal line we inherit some Sephardim ancestry, possibly from those fleeing Granada after its fall, hiding out in the Alpujarras on the Sierra Nevada. This tallies nicely what Uncle Detective has been positing for a long time. I haven't begun to look at Basque stuff yet.

There it is also for my friend who has been through so much: Enthusiasm for the new life, new place settled, beginning at hand, though something had to be said about the part of the story he refuses to mention. I sandwiched it in between happy guff, and he didn't reply specifically . It's probably painful to talk about but the avoidance of a nasty junkie-style death can't be magically turned into the story of Nine Lives Boy or at least, I won't be part of that retelling. He has to face what could have happened and why. He has depth, I'm sure this will get better. And he's in a sweet part of the country, with beaches and woods, so there's healing to be found in that, if not the general neighbourhood, which seems to be populated by the kind of people who start their sentences with 'I'm not racist but...'

Speaking of which, there it is too; the rise of the bonkers far right (they're all bonkers of course) the occult mob. There have been far right group rituals done at ancient sites like Avebury and Wayland's Smithy
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-49313179 I've heard of at least one group possibly connected with this bollocks, a sad bunch who claim the worship of Woden, and maintain that Hitler was his reincarnation. Someone tell these fools that Woden is Odin, a foreign god so hardly the father of England their England. Of course, they are too stupid to know and too far gone to care.
