I wait for minutes in the same place (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ibidem

'in the same place' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'i wait for minutes' is the wordplay.
'wait' becomes 'bide' (I've seen this before).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'minutes' becomes 'm' (common abbreviation).
'i'+'bide'+'m'='IBIDEM'

(Other definitions for ibidem that I've seen before include "In the same source (Latin)" , "Previously cited (in this book)" , "In the same place, used in referencing" , "In the same place (in references)" , "Notation meaning in same book or passage, often shortened" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
