The unnamed 61-year-old worked full time at a factory but said she couldn't afford more than a couple of nights in a B&B or hotel. So instead she slept in a phone box and then spent the day in cafes and libraries, Leicestershire Live reports . “She was very coy and evasive but eventually she told me she had nowhere to live and that she was sleeping in a phone box. As time went on and she found she couldn’t afford the upfront costs involved and was struggling to raise a deposit or rent on anywhere close enough to work. Unbeknown to her family member she had nowhere to go and headed for the phone box.
