Last year I was flying near a regional airport recieving a service from the approach frequency. The controller on is known, with some justification, as 'Grumpy' (he provides a very professional service but often come across like a jaded school teacher.)
A inbound charter aircraft called up. After the initial details were passed...
APPROACH "Charter 123, how many pax have you on board?"
CHARTER 123 "Oh, it's okay, everything is sorted with handling."
APPROACH (very irate voice) "Charter 123, that is NOT what I asked you!"
CHARTER 123 (very laid back voice) "Morning, (First name), I see you're in fine form this morning!"
