In a previous life, Mrs. Farlander was an official Sea Dog. A gig that she would do on occasion was to take a long wide chunk of wood (i.e. a plank) and tie a line (i.e. length of rope) around it, and drag it around while being all teary eyed. So of course inevitably, someone would see the spectacle and have to ask, "My dear Lady, what is the matter? What are you doing?". This would then be replied by "I was a bad little girl, sniff sputter,
AND THEY ARE MAKING ME WALK THE PLANK!"
Like this...
