English translation:the beetle beat
Explanation:
Hi Fiona,

Or something along those lines, just to try to keep some sort of play on words going.

Any music involved? That would make it even more meanningful, though you could always read beat meaning "round" or "routine" as in a "police beat".

Good luck!

Álvaro :O)
