What would you gift self isolators?

What happens after 14 days though Ohmother? does she take the cross off her door? There may be even more reason to stay clear of crowds etc by then, what with Trump closing America to Europe.....

Whatever happens with the virus (and I'm not saying it is unimportant) but the behaviours being shown by the human race are fascinating shocking

Hahahaha, Grammaretto! Good point. To top it all, a netflix subscription along with all the other bits and some good books and I'll lock myself away for a couple of months.

My good friend who is at very high risk is self-isolating and has pretty much everything she needs. She's a jigsaw addict, so it was fortunate that I had bought one for her birthday and gave it to her yesterday.
As for me - fruit would be a good choice. I might try a vegan régime while I'm out of circulation.

I would appreciate: like you GagaJo, wool and pattern.
Puzzle books, chocolates, a boxed set, a daily phone call.
I might self isolate if some of these things are coming my way.

Maggiemay totally normal! Plus the well stocked cupboards, my DDs think it’s old fashioned to have a store cupboard.

Oh yes, Missfoodlove! The Book Depository is a great website for books. They deliver free anywhere in the world (not so special in the UK I know, because we have access to loads, but for overseas people...)

Fresh fruit and veg, yes! Flowers would be great. They're such an inessential.

Something entertaining, based on the person. For me, something I could sew or knit. Or a crafty thing to do.

For others it might be baking ingredients.

My bloke would love a KIT. A very complex one that would take hours.

So dependent on the individual.

To be honest I have enough of everything to keep me going for much longer than a week. Not through any panic buying, just because we’re always well stocked. Is it not normal then to have picked up at least a dozen books from charity shops that you’ll get round to eventually?

A bunch of flowers might be nice.

I have a friend who is doing just that.
Sadly she is over a 100 miles away so there is not much I can do.
I’m posting a couple of books today and we have a daily chat.

The new Hilary Mantel, it will take about a month to read.

Ohmother what a nice idea

If it were me stuck in there I’d like books, jigsaws, snacks, wine and bath stuff, please. And my grandsons to come and talk to me through the front window.

A lovely homebaked cake, a bunch of flowers, the daily newspaper , maybe a puzzle book, and a note saying 'Thank You' for doing this to prevent others catching the virus.

Some DVDs if they have the means to play them. Or books if they are people who like to read.

Book, DVD, a box of fresh fruit and veg. and plenty of cake !
