Berlin Shoenefeld. Much digging going on in connection with the construction of the new terminal which leads to the inevitable WWII UXB. The German bomb disposal team are in attendance and when a critical stage is reached they close the Airport. This tower notifies to all with an expected opening time of 2pm. So at about 2.15 an English voice request start.
Twr. " Negative, airport closed bomb disposal still in progress"
Brit. "Oh, that's not the usual German efficiency we have come to expect"
Twr. "it is not our efficiency that you should question, it is your bomb that did not go off"
Brit. With much laughter " Roger, I will make some tea"
