The Wheatsheaf is a pub in Rathbone Place, Fitzrovia, London, that was popular with London's bohemian set in the 1930s. Customers including George Orwell, Dylan Thomas, Edwin Muir and Humphrey Jennings, were known for a while as the ''Wheatsheaf writers'' Other habituées included the singer and dancer Betty May, and the writer and surrealist poet Philip O'Connor, Nina Hamnett, Julian Maclaren-Ross, and Quentin Crisp.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://strangeflowers.wordpress.com/2011/03/03/strange-flowers-guide-to-london-part-2/ )〕
==Dylan Thomas==
In spring 1936, the poet Dylan Thomas met Caitlin Macnamara (1913–1994), a 22-year-old blonde-haired, blue-eyed dancer of Irish descent. She had run away from home, intent on making a career in dance, and aged 18 joined the chorus line at the London Palladium.〔 Introduced by the artist Augustus John, Caitlin's lover, they met in The Wheatsheaf.〔(Paul Ferris ), "Thomas , Caitlin (1913–1994)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004 (subscription only)〕 Laying his head in her lap, a drunken Thomas proposed.〔 Thomas liked to comment that he and Caitlin were in bed together ten minutes after they first met.〔FitzGibbon, 1965, p. 205.〕 Although Caitlin initially continued her relationship with John, she and Thomas began a correspondence, and in the second half of 1936 were courting. They married at the register office in Penzance, Cornwall, on 11 July 1937.
