Finally, in May last year, both single, their luck changed at a Wednesday night dinner, with Stewart seizing his chance to ask to see Henrietta again as couples chatted around the table. With Henrietta flying off to Los Angeles Friday, time was short. "He called me every day while I was in LA," says Henrietta. "Finally he asked 'Are we going and I said we haven't even kissed yet'.

"My mother has been planning my wedding for 33 years, I can't shatter her dreams by having it in Singapore," says the bride with a laugh. But some of preparations are being made in the city-state. "Getting the dress has been hilarious. I'm 6ft lin and everybody here is tiny. I tried on a corset and it came up to my belly button.

"But the good thing is that there are many great dressmakers here, SO it's not a problem getting things made." With artisan jewellers on hand, Henrietta has also been able to design her own engagement and wedding rings, discovering, in the process, some benefits from the great recession: preparing for a June wedding in March, usually considered has not been a problem. "Photographers, venues, marquees, caterers, they're all available," she says. The only scheduling problem has been to ensure that the wedding does not clash with one of the days that Henrietta's father, Mr Robin Gourlay, goes fishing. Stewart did manage to track his future father-in-law down, however, to ask him for hand. "He asked my father Henrietta's, says.

Oxford's win makes the overall score, Cambridge 56 Oxford 52, with 19 draws. Julie Kourtseva of Cambridge became the first female captain in the history of the competition.

telegraph.co.uk. fortunate survivor with 4Q falling under the However, South could hardly be blamed for preferring the safety of a trump suit. Unfortunately for him, a removal to 24 would have enquired about partner's hand, something that was of little interest. In the absence of a natural club bid, a pragmatic retreat to spades seemed to be the order of the day. West led 29 as dummy rather sheepishly tabled his trump support, though there would be a certain irony involving that issue.

Meanwhile, East had done the obvious, collecting couple of winners and giving West a ruff. A less-than-perfect switch to A followed, which drew $5. Declarer crossed to and tried for 46 and eight. Her returned to A for a repeat, duly ruffed by 47 and nine. At this stage, you or I might just trot out a couple of trumps, but South preferred a low club.

Now 4.10 travelled round to East's 410, reducing us to two cards. East had 043 and duly led one, South put 4J on that, and was overruffed by West. In turn, he placed on the table.
