I love working in the Strand, I get to go in to Covent Garden and watch these guys and the Opera singers all the time. Great music, and hilarious comedy pieces like shown here, and its not scripted, its all spontaneous. They always have a large crowd of people watching from the railings above :)

Hahahaha I'm a whore.

Why are there five people in this "quartet"?

Latest comment: Maybe because it is a quintet

Guest: Doe (1863 days ago)
Ah someone else noticed, now changed to 'quintet'.

Well done those fiddlers! I absolutely agree about people's rudeness with mobiles. I also hate it when you're having a conversation with someone and they spend the whole time immersed in their bloody texting....

its great!

ok... while I have seen these people perform at covent garden and think they are brilliant and I also think what they do here is brilliant, I do not think that it is outrageously rude to answer a call when quite frankly, they are in a public place and are perfectly entitled to do so. If they were in a theatre then it's a different matter but I really don't think it's rude when it's in a cafe.

Mobile 'phone users are like druggies. They can't tell when to just stop. They drive like drunks. I've had one walk out in front of my car. I've even had one txting while she was driving three feet off my rear bumper.

Very nice. It's really quite incredible that more and more people seem to be forgetting normal curtousy.
