Apologies re delay. It seems not much interest anyway.
4♥ by North is the limit. 4♦ might have achieved this, though North has a likely slam try. I doubled but North bid 4♦ then continued with 4NT over my 4♥ for -300.
At the other table, North doubled 3♦, which worked well - 4♦ by South, 4♥ by North. How do you like double?
Scoring: IMP
3♦ - no - no - ?
3♦ - no - no - ?

I don't like the following bids:
double at the other table;
double and 4NT at your table.
If preempts didn't work, people would stop playing them!
double at the other table;
double and 4NT at your table.
If preempts didn't work, people would stop playing them!
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.
