Soon in Tibet, I'm estimating (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

betimes

'soon' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'in tibet i'm estimating' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'BETIMES' is hidden in the letters of 'tibet im estimating'.

(Other definitions for betimes that I've seen before include "speedily" , "Soon or early (Old English)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
