If so, please desist! How else to explain these sharp stabbing pains in my neck? I thought I hadn't a care or enemy in the world, but someone must have created my wax effigy, now that Halloween madness has descended! My worry is that they switch attention to other parts. 
I thought effigies were only of your favourite enemy; there's food for thought!
I've had a few loyal Royal toasts lately, but I thought I'd produced enough Shiraz anti-bodies to last a life-time, so perhaps I need a few more booster shots. I'd hate to be (have) a pain in the neck.

Welcome to the *Gransnet Café. This is a non-judgemental space for you to pop in for a cuppa with some virtual friends, seek out advice for a particular problem, or share an update on your life - important or trivial. Feel free to have your say and chat about your day, but please leave any arguments at the door. If you're struggling to find someone to talk to in real life, or are simply looking for a bit of a chat, this is the place for you.
Maw; Thank you for your expression of sympathy! 
I know you're not the culprit as we are virtual bosom friends, but not having heard from you for a while I thought either your "mute" button was off or you weren't well; you've not been shredding the Royals either!.
Cheer up and keep well!
