You had to be there, however we have just witnessed a classic.
G-BVPR R22 on finals to woodvale..... Twr clears him to land, arrives ok. Twr then tells very nervous sounding solo pilot to taxi between two hangars. He can't grasp this instruction and wanders about for a couple of minutes, then gives up and lands on the grass. Twr says 'PR you have right of way to cross taxiway ahead of Tutor and Police helicopter and go to square of concrete between hangars'. He goes for our pad. Twr, NO! go between hangars!! Eventually he taxis to correct position after 6 minutes of being moved.
Then the call........ G-PR, I only wanted a touch and go!!
