Cheers Mike. We haven't seen Geoff's answers yet...

Yes, I'm afraid work has been too busy for me to get around to posting answers. This week should be better.

For what it's worth, I missed CADENCE (kept getting hung up on CADENZA, annoyingly -- the adjustment should have been simple), but found TUGBOATS. I found SWARTHIER, but at 26.5 seconds in.
