Thanks K,

I've learnt something today. Nothing to do with needles and cotton.

The old name " sewer," for a table attendant who placed and removed the dishes from the table, acted as waiter, &c., must be distinguished . In the See also:HOUSEHOLD, ROYALhousehold ordinances of See also:EDWARDEdward II. the word seems to appear in the See also:FORM (Lat. forma)form asseour, and in those of Edward IV. as assewer, an officer of the household who superintended the serving of a banquet . Asseour represents O . Fr. asseoir, to seat, set, Lat. assidere . The word was See also:EARLYEARLY, JUBAL ANDERSON (1816-1894)early connected with " sewe " or sew," juice, broth, pottage, cognate with sucus, juice .

Hi trastevere.

After a lifetime of doing crosswords I knew that sewer was clued as butler but hadn't bothered to research further.
Thanks for your explanations - very interesting.

Cheers K
