A new score

As unusual auctions go the one I'm about to show you is remarkable because it contains only two bids. Two bids and a double.

This was my hand:
A Q 4
6 5 3 2
Q J 7 6 5
6

All vul, playing pairs my partner dealt and opened a club - that's one bid. Since we play a transfer system and we show majors before minors I bid 1 - see what's coming?

Left hand opponent holding a lot of points completed the first half of a double and bid; and was left hanging.
