Covent Garden came to a standstill today when wives of world leaders attending the G20 Summit stopped by to see the ballet, Giselle at The Royal Opera House. As we looked out of our office windows Floral Street was closed off and there were police vans and secret service everywhere. Streets around Covent Garden were in gridlock by lunchtime and there was an air of anticipation as everyone chatted with security. Our favorite café in Floral Street was forced to close for the day – and then, suddenly, the cars with their blacked out windows moved off and our connection with London’s big event was over.
