What would you like right now?
My poor df has to isolate for 12 weeks, I'm going to drop a care package off on the doorstep.
I'm thinking puzzle book, some flowers to brighten up the house, a big bone for the dog, some treat food and an alcoholic drink? Any thoughts or ideas are appreciated.

(I will of course be helping with basic shopping and dog walks when needed, but I know he won't treat himself.)

I'm self isolating now due to age and pre existing health problems. I would like to be isolated with a chef and a cleaner but I suppose I've left it too late to arrange them.....
Otherwise I would love a chest freezer full of home made ready meals, a gym mat to use for exercise, I've just ordered a new dressing gown as I will be getting my use out of it and I would also appreciate a supply of nice hot and cold drinks

Might he like a tub of instant hot chocolate drink or those frothy coffee sachets, or maybe some herbal tea bags?
Some nice biscuits or little cakes perhaps? Grapes, oranges or kiwi fruit? Cheese and crackers?

I think it is ok for him to walk dog provided he is sensible and not in crowded area? I may be wrong though.

Lovely idea to do the care package, although I suspect we will all be advised to do this in due course.

Some lovely ideas thanks you, I think he'd appreciate some cheese and crackers, I wouldn't have though of that.
Yes I think he will walk the dog when it's quiet but I'm available if needed.
