Yeah, I know, partner has just make another mistake. We all make them and today it's definitely partner's turn. That's no good for our score but it doesn't have to be bad for my health! Frowning and getting crabby is bad for my health. Mistakes - partner's and mine - mess up our score but I'm in complete control of whether or not I frown so I'm not going to frown. So there.
Easier said than done, perhaps, so perhaps we have to work on our table presence in just the same way that we work on our finesses.
