Letters to the editor: Give Dave an OBE

Dear editor,

Regarding your story about Dave Denton (81-year-old Bedford window cleaner honoured at surprise party)

This chap is an inspiration to the younger generation and has taught them one thing; bloody hard work – which is what they cannot grasp or understand.

Am I being unfair or un-pc? Probably.

l think he deserves an OBE.

l think call me Dave [the mayor] should start the ball rolling for an award as well!
