It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice

Good luck to Frances and Jeffrey. Some of their usual teammates often play on BBO as well.

Obv Frances will win because she's a hero.
And she did, convincingly even. The opponents conceded with 8 boards to play, 80 IMPs behind.
Congrats Frances!

Thank you for your kind thoughts.
Among other less than optimal actions I managed to go off in a tricky 3NT, which will appear in another thread (why do I get all of these contracts to play?)
It's actually slightly worrying knowing that your husband, your regular bridge partner and a team-mates' regular partner are all commentating, but I've reveiewed the chat logs carefully and they were generally quite restrained when various team members did the wrong thing.
