Shortly afterwards he wore a slightly embarrassed (if not contrite) look after he failed to recognise one of his triumphs of a day earlier. It is with some regret that I must admit that there were two people whose medium-term memory was shown to be defective, but the second of these - a hitherto underrated player and yet-to-be-recognised writer, was just extremely unlucky.

In today's deal North made some rather odd decisions, but we can't blame his memory. After two passes West opened a weak 2heart and North had to bid. Will you agree with his decision?
