What gift would you like from a grateful weekend house guest

[AlphaApple]

That can be sent via post?

Good friends are hosting DD17 for the weekend, at her request (although they have an open invitation to her). I'd like to send them a little thank you. DD is easy going and of course generally delightful but house guests do create work which I'd like to say thank you for.

Flowers? Chocolates? Anything more imaginative?

Flowers or chocolates are popular for a good reason. They feel like treats but disappear quickly.

Flowers, chocolates Or bottle if wine are the standards.

Maybe local produce from where you are from - a mini - hamper, if you live in another area.

Some really nice chocolate or some lovely cheese

Flowers. Always flowers.

Wine or cheese. I don't mind flowers but chocolate would hand around forever in our house.

I'd like a Miller and Carter (or equiv) voucher

Cheese via post… not for me.
Candle or wine I think, depending what they like.

White flowers or nice wine.

Cheese
wine
book tokens (might just be me!)

How about M&S afternoon tea by letterbox

Just them to leave early enough on Sunday I get some breathing space.

Flowers. And a nice thank you card.
Actually, I like guests to turn up with flowers and then post a nice note when they have left.

Bloom and Wild letterbox flowers

Fortnum and Mason hamper.

A lovely houseplant as an alternative to flowers. M&S do those by delivery also.

Flowers or a cheese box. Pong does a nice one.

A nice bottle of wine if they drink. Flowers or some nice food bit. I personally would not want a candle nut would prefer something that can be used up. I don't want ornaments, mugs, or things like that

Letter box flowers
OR
a gift voucher for a shop that you know they like that is local to them, or a local restaurant.

I was sent a Cornish afternoon tea box for a birthday, was a lovely surprise and really nice to receive. Scones, Rodda's clotted cream, little pots of jam, biscuits, tea bags - perfect to share.

We had a bakewell tart in the post! Sent from bakewell! It was the loveliest surprise. https://www.bakewelltarts.co.uk/shop

Brownies if they're not home bakers

Is DD giving a gift also, or just yourself?

A voucher to a local restaurant, garden centre with a cafe etc.

Betty’s is a good option.

Can you give a budget?

Top end for me: cheese hamper

Bottom end: nice bottle of wine or house plant (not flowers for me. They never last long and chucking them out makes me sad)

Wine, flowers chocolate
