SHEEP Wordplay Part Deux!

Yes it's back! The game that's super easy to play and nigh on impossible to win. You need to really get inside the boardsie hive mind for this one. They said it wouldn't work last time but it did....just about :D This time we're adding letters and words before the word instead of after. * The aim is to either add letters…

This time we're adding letters and words before the word instead of after.
The aim is to either add letters onto the existing word to create a new one or add another word to make two words. Choose whatever you think will be the most popular option.

The letters must be added BEFORE the words below, not after.

For example If the word was "Hard" you could answer either "Shard" or "Die Hard". I'll be combining entries that have spaces and those that don't so don't worry about that.

Meh, how hard can it be, really???

I ask myself this before every new variation of game I try, and the answer is "very" - so obviously I'm in too

I came 12th in a field of 34 players in the last Wordplay. I hope to improve upon that performance this time, now that I have all that extra Sheep experience since.

I was convinced that I did terribly in the last version of this but it turns out I won it. Based on what I've submitted this time I'm not expecting a repeat!

I find if I start second guessing stuff I un-sheep myself as often as I sheep So I went with gut ideas for most of them.

I always struggle in word games where I don't have the first letter, so it should be interesting to see how many super obvious answers I miss
