I've finished Expertease apart from 24d. 'Retreat with time to', -E-T. Thanks for help.

Looks like 'beat'. i.e. 'beat the retreat' and 'beat' as in musical time.

Blimey, you're quick off the mark, issue 7 has only just hit the shelves in the shops here

I think it has to be 'beat', but I feel uneasy about it. I get the magazine on subscription, so it comes a few days before it gets to the shops.

thanks
