Gib should not leave this double in imo.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

My partner and I would probably pull the double, but recommend you bid 5c instead of doubling. Probably shouldn't have doubled. Passing isn't right either.

Bidding 5!c when partner may very well have a 4 card spade suit or heart tricks seems quite unilateral to me. Don't expect him to volunteer 4♠ with a balnced minimum.
X as strong t/o is pretty standard in this position imo...
