IN response to your article in the Globe on February 11 regarding pig eviction.

I wish to defend Mr Allan Hess, not because he is a long-time friend of 32 years, but because he is a caring, kind and compassionate man.

I know that Allan must be suffering to have complained about this.

Everybody should have "peace of mind" in their home, it’s their sanctuary from the world. This has taken away his peace of mind.

Hand on hearts those who would put up with the stench, especially in summer, when they like to sit out and enjoy their gardens, and the impact on health.

Mr Hess is in poor health and I am so worried about my lovely friend.

He does NOT wish these pet pigs to be harmed, he wouldn’t harm a fly.

Please Susan, sort this out amicably if you can. Thank you.
