Two recent ones at Cranfield.

I was on finals to land on Runway 22 (I fly fixed wing...).

Me: G-MM finals 22 to land
ATC: G-MM cleared to land HOTEL 22
Me: cleared to land erm... HOTEL 22?? request auto-rotation in that case
ATC: oh.. sorry.. cleared to land 22, and bonus points for the autorotation.

One clear calm evening in October, overheard an aircraft approaching from the northeast.

A/C: G-XX request rejoin and we'd like a couple circuits.
ATC: G-XX approved, surface wind is calm, nothing in the circuit, which runway would you like?
A/C: We'll take all 4, all with left turns in that case.
ATC: errrrr... oooooooookay make straight-in for runway 22
...
A/C: G-XX finals touch and go runway 22
ATC: G-XX cleared touch and go runway 22, 36, 04, and 18, just don't get too dizzy.
