I've been wearing my new glasses, the nicer ones. They're not perfect, but I definitely look better than in the old ones, both in terms of perceiving better and appearing better, which was the aim of the exercise. At some point, I'll shop around more for some perfect glasses (I think I'll stick with rimless after-all, but maybe look for wide arms), but I feel bespecticaled to the necessary extent for the moment. I think I see well.

I'm disappointed, the grand slam was a nice result, and I was the only person in either B team to bid it, although all the A team did. But our overall result as compared to other pairs was not very good: ok, but a lot worse than last time. Not just in absolute terms (since we may have been playing better people) but worse compared to people we did much better than before, which is a shame.
I think we played pretty well, but had several little mistakes that I wasn't sure if would drag down the result, but probably did. There were at least a couple of game contracts and slam contracts that we could have bid, but missed mainly because there were details in our system we hadn't discussed.
