You have some play for 6♠, but the percentage is too low to justify bidding it unless you are behind and need a board.

I don't undestand 3NT (10xxx ??) If South pass (and also opp) we'll be on the same point with a lot of infornation about club and spade and force on second round

Not sure what the above post regarding the 3NT bid is about (I think it's an easy 3NT- T9xx is usually a stopper anyway, and I need better diamonds for 3D).
I actually quite like being in slam here. On best defense, if the club honours split, then RHO would have to win the first and must have only started with 3 or less clubs as well as have the second trump (and some people don't like leading singleton trumps at T1). Otherwise I can just take a ruffing finesse if LHO wins the club or play to either drop the other club honour or crossruff the rest of the hand. Unfortunately I don't have the methods to find it.

auction contains a series of dubious choices.. lol
since it got inquinated from bid #1, not sure of the rest of the bidding matters much
