I was thinking you lot had, I've been away all week and not one effort until your attempt Reidy and sorry but no.

I will offer up the answer to this on Tuesday thus giving me the chance to rip into some of those showing up at the meet on Wednesday:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:, who is a fiendish old fart then:lol::lol:
 
What a waste of an easy question

The answer is simple, Thompson and Weaver were amateur golfers taking part in the Master. Both are obliged to stay at the course for the duration of the tournament but they can't stay in the main club house which is reserved for past masters champions instead they stay in the attic of a control lodge which is also known as 'Butlers Cabin' which by pure coincidence was the name of a horse in the Grand National so the answer should have been

BUTLERS CABIN and that was easy:P:P

As none of you know nothing about sport I'll try a pop connections quiz next
 
so when they are bagsying the rooms do they say

" i'll have you butler...........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! "

do i get the points for that bit of devestating repartee ?
 
why would a butler have a cabin?


That is a far more interesting question than you'd have believed. The Augusta members are super rich and in his biog Peter Alliss quotes the distasteful fact that a personal servant (slave in most languages) was left by one dead member to another for employment at the club, this happened as recently as the 1970's!(n)

I was told the cabin had been named after Rhet Butler, a fictional character in the Augusta based epic 'Gone with the wind'. That movie was in turn named after Vim's anal activities(y)
