It happened. Today. I finally got scammed. In summary - I'm selling stuff on facebook marketplace. Read on to see how it all happened and if this might be happening to you!

Where it all Began
"Your life is like a roller coaster without any ups" My friend said that to me many years ago back in second year university. At the time I thought he was exaggerating (and I still do!) but after all these years that comment never really left my side. I don't agree that there aren't any … Continue reading Where it all Began
Hands of a Boulderer
I've been bouldering once to twice a week for about 6 months now and am still enjoying it. My friends and I have even found a couple of bouldering games we play sometimes when we go which can make those days when you're craving some different climbs a bit more fun! Having bouldered for this … Continue reading Hands of a Boulderer
The Silent Reminder
Jill sat on the cold hard seat shaking. Her striking complexion covered in running mascara and unruly hair. Vibrant cerulean eyes lost in regret. Why had she let him persuade her so easily? Why? If he… if David… No! She must not think about that! Jill had to have faith. Her son would come out … Continue reading The Silent Reminder
A Month Till D-Day
That's right guys! There is only one month left until I meet my pen pal!! The flights have been booked, the accommodation had been arranged and we have a pretty good idea of what we're going to get up to while we are there. My Pen pal and I have been chatting on and off. … Continue reading A Month Till D-Day
I was Robbed
I live in a safe enough neighbourhood. My neighbours are friendly, there are a number of parks in walking distance, schools, and lots of dogs around. It's not really the kind of place where you close all the blinds and cower in the corner out of fear of being the next victim. Nonetheless, I was … Continue reading I was Robbed
Finally…. A phone replacement!
It's been a while since I've posted... I know... And I'm sorry! But I am happy to say, I have FINALLY replaced my phone! I spent a really long time brooding over the fact that I would have to replace my 7 month old phone... I mean phones aren't cheap these days (yet we wonder … Continue reading Finally…. A phone replacement!
The Week That Was
What a week! I have had the joy of starting at a new company last week. My new job is in a different industry and as such the role has absolutely no relation to what I did previously. I have an incredible amount of things to learn and, although I have gone home every day … Continue reading The Week That Was
Stumped by a Dyno!
My inability to complete a dynamic move has prevented me from finishing a number of climbs... So i need your help! If you have any tips and tricks please let me know!
We all Climb Differently
In my climbing journey, I have being going to my local gym with two other people. We all started climbing together and have continued to do so (though at slightly different rates due to life circumstances). I've gotta say, it really makes a difference to have someone to join you on your journey. Unfortunately I … Continue reading We all Climb Differently
He Liked My Comment!
Tom Boyden is a really fun guy on Youtube working with Juji. He's done a lot of collaborative work with Magnus as well. I'm a really big fan of their bromance. They comment all over each other's video's and Instagram posts. So cute!! Seriously guys, if you want to see some really fun video's around … Continue reading He Liked My Comment!
New Job
I have been given the privilege of starting a new job this week. This is something I am very excited about but it does mean a bit of a shake up for my schedule and routine. So I just wanted to let everyone know that the likely decline in posts isn't because I'm giving up … Continue reading New Job
How do you Drive this Thing???
Having received the unfortunate news that my car was being written off, I went about buying myself a new car but... how on earth do you drive this thing?!
I Tied Myself to a Chair XD
I tied myself to a chair while I was at work. There's a perfectly reasonable explanation I swear!
Hahoe Folk Village – A Taste of Tradition
Hahoe Folk Village is a traditional village where people still live. You can arrange to stay over night at a hosts home. It's stunning and definitely worth the visit, though make sure to plan ahead!
The Death
Looking out from the balcony on which I stood, everything behind the ever encroaching line of death was black and still. There was no life. There was no breath. There was only death and a small black haze as all the leaves and grass crumbled into nothingness..
The Totem Pole
The coolest climb in Australia.
Let’s get Magnus to see my Blog!
Something very exciting has happened! Someone shared my blog post about Magnus on his most recent video, so I need your help!!
What to do when bored on a train
I recently spent a VERY long time on a train. Across the whole day my total time spent on the train tallied about 8 hours. EIGHT H. O. U. R. S. In one day. Note: This image was taken from a google search I gotta say, by the end of it I was running out … Continue reading What to do when bored on a train
Alex Honnold Continues to Inspire
If you're a climbing fanatic then you would have heard of Alex Honnold but have you heard of the Honnold Foundation? Alex Honnold is a professional climber like Magnus but, from what I can tell, doesn't like to spend too much time in the spot light. I honestly don't know that much about the guy. … Continue reading Alex Honnold Continues to Inspire
Let’s meet?
So a month or so ago Mark told me he got a job overseas. He was looking for work where I live as well (which is what I was really hoping for) but he wasn't successful here. The job he ended up getting was somewhere else in an English speaking Asian country. The day after … Continue reading Let’s meet?
