I have completed the grid and have a good number of extra words - but can only make sensible words from a few of their start letters! I have the last 5 letter word and a possible first word but nothing else makes sense. I'd love some pointers as to what I'm doing wrong please!

Please ignore my last post. As soon as had I typed it in I realized that the last word made by the extra letters actually had 7 letters so the rest then made sense. Have now solved the preamble etc! Phew! Can now relax in time to start tomorrow's!
