I've two from today's puzzle:

Vague popular English expression I note in time = indeterminate. I can see bits of the logic but not the whole shebang.

In Africa it may charge money = rhino. Not getting the money reference...

Many thanks

Vague - indeterminate
popular - in
English expression - E term
I note - I N(a bit ropey)
in time - Date with "E trem i n" inside3

vague being the operative word lol.

Best I can do is
popular ([english expression I note] in time)
popular = in
english = e
expression = term
I note = in
time = date

in(d[ e term in]ate

See what other interpretations emerge.

And I thank youse all. Not worth kicking myself over this one - a poor clue, in my view. So toodle-oo. The noo.
