Europe is sunny and warm this time of the year. Am having a wonderful visit with Anita in Geneva, Switzerland.
Life goes on for the Swiss as they are not in the Euro Zone.
Hair cut anyone?

(1) forcing
Many went down one or two tricks. This declarer went down three, seems a little excessive.
A few, tipped off by the double, made 10 tricks for +590.
The play went like this. Click next to see the play.
Making my way North to Lille, France.
