Look, in the last two shifts of this cycle (quiet nightshifts), I've had a heading of 275 read back as 270 and an altitude of 2500' read back as 2000'. Both times by 'professional' smartie tube drivers. When you guys start to get it 100% right, then we'll be able to relax with the repetitive back covering clearances. Another favourite which has happened more than once in my last 6 duties, has been "ABC123 taxy to holding point G2."
"ABC123 taxying to G1" Mon Dieu!!!!!!

Is English not your first language? I know I grew up in NI, but my accent isn't that strong !
