3♠, it is just conceivable that 3♣ could get passed out or that we need to bid 5♠ over 5♣. I will pull partner's double of 5♣.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket

I would pass for now. If LHO bids I will come back in. If LHO passes and partner bids 3♥ (just want to emphasize that this is extremely likely) I will bid 3♠. If LHO passes and partner doubles again I will bid 4♠.
In general I think it's a good rule that when you are very weak and shapely and the bidding goes like this, you should be aware that your partner is very likely to have a strong single-suiter.

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. :)
