Help - Son's 14th Birthday ?!?!

[IceBoy]

Hi All,

My eldest son turns 14 at the weekend and I have no present for him.

I need help.....has everything, so I was thinking a day out and thought....pop concert! BUT there is nothing this weekend or even next, that he would like.

Please, please give me ideas of either what to get him (he has everything!!) or how to spend the day with him?

Under 17s driving experience at Mercedes Benz World.

Together with a wander around the facility there, lunch in the restaurant and time at Brooklands Museum?

Take him and his mates karting.

Both great ideas, thanks.....keep them coming!

Paintball, high ropes course like go-ape, but there are better ones, Wave rider (indoor surfing), indoor skiing (west London) on a rolling mat, wake boarding (one on the Thames, or many around the country, karting, quad biking, hovercraft racing, windsurfing, kite-surfing

The kid is fourteen, he'll be chuffed with a low class hooker, no need to overspend!

And spend some of the money saved on a bump of coke he can do off her ass

Mountain biking at Swinley Forest .... Amazing and you can hire the bikes

How about a years membership of this http://under17-carclub.co.uk/#u17cc then you get to spend most Sundays next year having fun with him.

Hi,

See you live in Maidenhead, get over to lagoonapark.com near J11 M4. It's a jet ski centre and the age limit at the low end is 14 for the jet skis, get him out on that then some lunch somewhere.
