26a = Omar
26a. emir.
RIME = RelayNet International Message Exchange
8d Start wit hat = head-dress

Take off the 'chap' (ie remove 'HE'

and you are left with address
Dinkypuzzled, I stick with Omar

Part of a computer = RAM (returning = MAR)

Cypher = zero = O

Thanks gen2 and dinkypuzzled.
You both make a compelling case for 26a !
Agree with excised

excised = taxed = having charges
excised = cut out
26a. gen2 - your answer sounds more convincing. I don't get the Times so could you confirm that it is Omar when the solution is published, please.
