I too claim to know the area intimately- 25 years of my life was spent there. What I’m saying is that this intimate knowledge doesn’t confer any special privileges or insight. The points I’m making here are Principles and Best Practice, which would apply to any similar situation. The fact that I remember the dead cat behind the rotting tree trunk on the corner of Meadow Close and Newtownpark Avenue in the summer of 1981 is neither here nor there.
