horse trade / hotelman - a stable keeper
Closer to truth than you know. A place of public accomodation has to have a license to operate. In old days it was an Hostelry license. If any place still operates under an hostelry license they must take care of any animals you bring with you .... as the Waldorf Astoria found out when Tom Mix the movie cowboy arrived (1930s) with his horse "Tony" and they had to accommodate the horse too! The WA turned it into a publicity gimmick by stabling the famous animal in the lobby!
hypothrombinemia/hypophalangism = cold,limp handshake. Hi Bill
duplation/dysmetria = unable to see more than one thing at a distance.
Q-clearance/quaggy - the sinking feeling you get trying to keep who-knows-what straight when too many people tell you too many secrets secrets.

so if you are a Savoy Say so, then would it be fair to say that you were Savoy savvy?!
...and would that be Savoy fair, meaning knowing how to behave at all times? which is of course where "savvy" actually comes from. I think.
