Oh @Feck dear heart you have no idea what’s ahead of you! Go well!
They could call it ‘Inventing Aneurysm”
I should have!
A bit of The The at full blast brought balance to the world again though
I’m obviously not saying she’s lying or anything, but
I’m pretty sure she had a Nokia 3310. I know we’ve spoken about this before but has she ever explained how she accomplished this? I might have missed something that would explain all this.
‘Not so the Nokia 3310. The daddy of texting, this could run three messages together for a whopping 459 characters. Sure, it could only store a handful of them, but it was groundbreaking.’
So she could write a few sentences at a time before needing to download them as the phone only had a tiny memory.
Questions.
1. If she wrote the whole book on the Nokia because she didn’t have a laptop, where did she keep downloading the three sentence sections to?
2. Would this mean she would write three sentences and download every time?
3. Couldn’t anyone have lent her a computer?
4. How was she writing and uploading her blog at the same time?
I guess, but there's sorting out with a big chunk of money Vs letting move back home or getting them a weekly shop until benefits arrive. Like the managed to bring bags of shopping when she went to the foodbank etc.
It's one of the things that is vaguely possible. She's officially said it was a Nokia E72 - not exactly old at the time, it was about 2 years out from general release. More expensive than getting a 3GS (£13.50/month from O2 once the iPhone 5 came out in 2013 - a hell of a stepup for me after years of Virgin Contract free PAYG), but it did have a colour screen and QWERTY buttons like a Blackberry, along with the facility for adding Micro SD storage. It was very much a business targeted model (with a price to match).
Of course, people assume that 'an old Nokia' was the £30 3310 on PAYG. But that was over ten years old by the time she was uploading blog posts. It's also easy to get confused with the undeclared sponsored posts about switching to the novelty Nokia rehash in about 2016.
Where is that receipt where she talks about her old laptop from the fire service days?! She never wrote a bleeping book on her phone. She would have been paid an advance to write said book, that’s how non fiction usually works.
Didn't we 
that she still had a laptop at this time?
that she still had a laptop at this time?The only way she ever wrote a fuckin book on her phone was when she sent a text that said "I think one day I will write a book" and texted it to herself
Yes when she was also selling that horrid dress despite having sold all her possessionsDidn't we
My vomit emoji is for the use of ‘smudge’ not the avocado. Which I now need to try.
This is in Debait's likes. Probably reading WAY too much into this but does she think she's the fish and eveyone esle is the cat? Either way, you're a frozen fish, luv. Was going to say d**d fish but then that's obviously harassment and abuse. 
Exactly. The sim has room for like 100 texts. There's NO onboard storable for a book. Not even 100kb. Nein. Zip. Nada.
I'm dreaming of baked beans over a crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside baked potato with a ton of butter mashed into the potato and half a block of mature grated cheddar slowly, gently melting on top. That's if I can ~afford~ butter of course.
This reminds me of the 'cat' 'fish' emojis she and LJC tweeted to each other at the height of the DKL fiasco. It's obviously got some special meaning for her.This is in Debait's likes.

Something about Boots? Superdrug probably made her drop it
She's turned the squigs against us
Apologies if that's already been said, I've been BUSY
Didn't she also once claim that when she was due to hand in her first book she literally just gave them her notebook with her scrawled recipes in, because being a poor smol working class urchin, that's how she thought it worked?
It's all bullshit anyway.
