Two DHL aircraft on approach one behind the other. One makes it to vacate at the midpoint, the second doesnt and takes the next one. On vacating ATC instruct him to "Eurotrans 123, follow the company 7-5 left to right, parking stand 104 by juliet"
Pilot responds "roger, 104 following the banana"
Neither me nor the ground controller could talk straight for a good minute or so we were laughing so hard.
Or there's the one heard from Humberside
IA123 - "Indian Air 123, crossing humber bridge"
Cntlr - "That'll be £2.50 then please..."
