The big news today that the world’s first ever cloned camel has been born in Dubai has been dwarfed by the truly important story: I have my first BlackBerry.
Obviously I will now be too busy “crackberring” to write this blog, but there we are.
I have to say it was love at first mega-bite as I received my welcome email closely followed by a reply to one from me to Rupert saying ‘send me an email now’. The miracle of emails arriving in my hand was almost too much to bear. After all these years of failed Wi-Fi connections, phone-cards that don’t work, wires that don’t connect. All that is in the past. My BlackBerry and I are as one.
It may have taken me almost as long to get on to it as it did to clone the camel (around seven years apparently), but now that I have it, I am not going to let it out my sight.

Welcome to the glorious world of BlackBerry!
Can you believe I even approved your comment using it!

Careful not to overdo the blackberry gazing – heard the stories
of them thrown into swimming pools and similarly terminal
places by partners trying to compete for attention?
I too am tempted by a blackberry, after bumping into a friend of mine the other days who’s blackberry beeped at her to remind her of her childrens dental appointment in half an hour’s time. Fantastic!! I tend to wander about in a happy dreamy world and then get cross with myself for forgetting mundane things such as these. It could help me to appear almost organised and on top things!
Jose – cannot believe my beloved Blackberry almost ended up a swimming pool the first day I had it. I had left it on a sun lounger on top of a towel at a friend’s house. My friend grabbed the towel to dry a crying child and I watched as the Blackberry flew into the air and landed perilously close to the pool. Another three inches to the right and it would have been a short-lived love affair.
