My lesson here, 'just because it looks like the auction is about to die, LHO is unlimited here and could be bidding 3NT next turn', or as my partner said "your suit had more holes than a colander".

I do not understand this, Jilly. You are a far better player than this. You did not overcall 2D the first time; rho has just limited her hand and now you come in? Why? IF you feel you must bid, do so the first time. I bet you would not have been doubled. -1400 against good defence.

This reminds me of chess champion Emanuel Laskers qoute: "I may be an old man, but when you put a finger in my mouth I'll bite!"
