I got my first BlackBerry handset in January 2010 – it was a BlackBerry Curve 8520 and I loved it to bits. Literally.

When I first got it, I found it a bit confusing to use – none of the menus felt “right” and the whole “accessing the main menu” bit was totally confusing.
However, once I’d owned my little BlackBerry Curve for a week, everything suddenly made sense and I fell deeply in love! <3

After 15 months, my little BlackBerry Curve had started to fall apart - literally; the rubber casing was peeling away and had actually started falling off completely and it started to become completely unresponsive at times.

During my love affair with the BlackBerry Curve, I'd noticed a younger and shinier model - the BlackBerry Torch 9800, with all of its touchscreen AND qwerty keypad and shiny glory!

When my little BlackBerry Curve had started falling apart, I looked at prices for the BlackBerry Torch and at between £500 and £600, it was too far out of my league.

Another two months on, Myke randomly asked me how much the beautiful BlackBerry Torch was worth and I told him. He said that one of his friends was trying to raise money to become a nurse and was selling their BlackBerry Torch for just £150!

I tried not to get my hopes up but was still somewhat excited!

We went to meet his friend who allowed me to have a fiddle with the BlackBerry Torch, which was all shiny and beautiful and exciting.

I said I was in love and the deal was done. £150 was handed to Myke's friend and the BlackBerry Torch was handed to me.

That was almost three weeks ago and I am STILL in love.

I love you, my cwoot wittle BlackBerry Torch! <3
