I'm going to give Carrot Club a go. This is a two way club system played by two Irish International Pairs (Tom Hanlon & Hugh McGann, Tommy Garvey & John Carroll). The opening of One Club signifies a 11-13 Balanced hand or 16+(17Bal) hand and a 14-16 NoTrump. A one level opening is 10-15(16Bal). Usually Polish Two Club (6 clubs or 5/6 clubs and 4/5 card Major 10-15 HCP), a variation of Ekrens (a weak 2 suited major) and Weak Twos are played, but as with most systems these are very interchangeable.
This system was developed to be a cross between Polish Club and the Swedish systems Svan and Skrott and was named the Carrotski club. An edited version of this, Carrot Club, was used by the Swedish Open pair in the European Championships in 1972.
I will be creating my own notes shortly but in the meantime here is a couple of links regarding the Carrot Club.

Hi David,
Thanks for the comment. BTW, Hanlon/McGann's 2d opening is either 20-22 bal of a weak 2 in either major.
Whats your name on BBO?
Regards, Rueful.
