Another good one I heard a couple of days ago:
ATC: "FR1234 are you aware that your destination aerodrome is closed?"
FR: "What is the reason for the closure?"
ATC: "The reason is blablabla..., how do you wish to proceed?"
FR: "It is ok, we will continue and we will make a decision with the next sector"
Is it just me that I find such a dialogue a bit surreal?
Not a hit towards FR pilots, I have friends there, but this reflects on the FR operation methinks. It all smacks of money saving, which must make life extremely unpleasant for their pilots.
