From this week’s Camden New Journal: “A-list versus B-list in battle of the celebrity-haunt pub”.
The pub might indeed be the haunt of celebrities, but it is not a phrase that turns around very well. Chris Evans in a white sheet anyone? (Not a bad idea, come to think of it.)
Playing with the Oxford reference collection, it came up with this quotation from Tennyson, however, which does seem appropriate:
I come from haunts of coot and hern,
I make a sudden sally
And sparkle out among the fern,
To bicker down a valley.
(From “The Brook” 1855)
