Shananigans at the club

I have a standing date at the local bridge club for the second Thurday of each month with a lady named Dee. That was last night and the third board, I picked up:
♠9 6 2 ♥6 4 3 ♦A J 10 2 ♣A 6 5.

My right-hand opponent opened a 15 to 17 high-card point 1NT. I passed and the guy on my left bid 4♥. a Texas transfer showing spades. RHO bid 4♠ and that ended the auction. What would you lead?

I don't like to plunk down aces, especially after the 1NT call on my right. I also hate to lead from three low cards (hearts). My partners know I try to lead from a holding I have values in. If I lead a heart and partner gets in, she will often return my suit expecting to win tricks there -- that is the last thing I want. So, I shrugged my shoulders and led the ♠6.

This was the deal:

                ♠ A Q 8 7 5 2
                ♥ 2
                ♦ 9 6 3
                ♣ J 9 7 4
♠ 9 6 2                         ♠ J 4
♥ 6 4 3                         ♥ J 9 8
♦ A J 10 2                      ♦ K Q 7 3
♣ A 6 5                         ♣ K 10 8 3
                ♠ K 10
                ♥ A K Q 10 7 5
                ♦ 8 5 4
                ♣ Q 2

Declarer played low, partner the ♠J and South the king. He proceeded to draw trumps, then played the ♥A K Q. When they split, he had the first 12 tricks!

There were eight tables, 7 was top on a board. Guess what our score was?
