About to jog over to get answer (6)
I believe the answer is:
retort
'answer' is the definition.
(I know that retort is a kind of answer)
'about to jog over' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (regarding).
'to jog' becomes 'trot' (synonyms).
'over' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'trot' in reverse letter order is 'tort'.
're'+'tort'='RETORT'
'to get' is the link.
(Other definitions for retort that I've seen before include "may be found in lab" , "Chem. flask; sharp answer" , "Witty/sharp reply" , "Witty reply" , "Glass vessel used in distillation" .)
