Hi Dear Mr.Wolff
I have a feeling of Deja vu. Vaguely I remember that this deal has been covered in not so distant past. However, I could be wrong in which case, my sincere apologies
Regards

Hi AVRR,

My records do not show it, so perhaps it could be a similar hand to this theme which
appears to be the exact same one. No doubt the aggressive bidding to a mediocre slam is cause for being alert, but are you suggesting the exact same hand or merely a close facsimile?

Regardless of the result of the search no apologies are necessary, at least, by you.

Hi Dear Mr Wolff
Perhaps it could be the theme with same four one split of trumps. I would try to dig out. Could be needle in a haystack but would try

H AVRR,

No need to try, which certainly is just fine with me. if it is OK with you.

Yes, especially with various 4-1 splits in trump, which sadly often demolish a decent
game or slam contract (and even worse, one which, if correctly guessed, may make).

Hi Dear Mr Wolff
You are too kind
