It's VB day

Victory for the BlackBerry that is. The war has been raging between the iPhone and the BlackBerry and as the commentators expected, it was a hard fought battle.

When we last left off, it was equal - no clear winner. The knock down blow came Monday night when Luis and I hosted Emma and Lisa for dinner. It was a splendid meal of chicken and grape tomato pesto with a side salad of rocket (arugula as it is known over here) and parmesan cheese. This was accompanied by a bottle of Chilean wine. It was everything you could want - the food good and the company was great.

To follow this meal, Luis whipped up pineapple ice cream and fresh berries. This led Emma to think back to her childhood and how she loved picking Blackberries. She dived in and here is the photo (we refer to it as exhibit A).

Therefore, the judge awarded the final point to team BlackBerry. No one is sure exactly why points were awarded but the judges are a secretive lot and their decision is final. Speculation is that is was a combination of an iPhone user enjoying a blackberry experience and the fact that you cannot eat an iPhone. Who am I to judge the judges?- I'm no supreme court.

It is heartening to see good triumph over evil one again.


P.S. and thanks to Luis for concocting the diabolical plan.
