Son's 15th bday coming up and keen to do an 'experience' of some sort - he's keen on football, does a wee bit of riding, typical teenager. I was keen to take him to a Barca game, but horribly expensive albeit would have been a great experience; Man Utd games look also v expensive for non-members. So thinking possibly a gig of some sort (altho his musical tastes and none are quite different) - any other good recos? We're close to London & Kent.
Thanks!
A bit young for hookers and coke I suppose ?
15? A high class hooker...or a bunch of cheap ones.
[i]edit: doh, too late![/i]
On a serious note what about a Bundesliga game aren`t some of those really cheap compared with other top level football ?

Go Ape?
Was going to suggest [url= http://www.nuerburgring.de/en/angebote/driving-academy/co-pilot-rides/bmw-ring-taxi.html ]a lap of the Nordschleife in an M5[/url] but the minimum age is 16...maybe next year.
I wondered how long it'd be before someone suggested Jacques Anquetil's 'breakfast of champions'
Father and son trip to Le Mans. Great weekend very good value money if you camp and get a general entry ticket and sounds like you are in the right part of the country for an easy trip across the channel.
Shame about the Man Utd game as you're in the perfect location in London/Kent.
I've heard there a bit crap anyway. Fulham would be closer?
Behind the scenes visit to a football club,I hate football but found it quite intresting till some of the players offered their autographs and i didnt have any idea who they where.
Real Madrid? Didn't think it was that pricey.
Wild camping holiday with his father?

I was going to suggest the driving experience.
Or behind the scenes tour of local big club. My lad had a tour at Pride Park and loved it. Saw the police cells and all sorts....
Flying lesson?
Clay shooting lesson at West London?
Jedi skills day?

Good point, but as the OP has already pointed out [url= http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/sport/sport-headlines/british-men-in-barcelona-shirts-hoping-youll-ask-2014031284505 ]Barcelona are the new Man U[/url]
A flight in a light aircraft? Ragging a car experience on an airfield? Trip to Laaandon, go on the big wheel and have a superb lunch at Maroush Express? Day trip to Paris on the train? Canoe trip on the Thames? Trip to Bletchley Park? (Our 15 y.o. computer-mad son LOVED that).
A bit of a journey but....

I had this for my 18th. It was very, very dull.
Airkix.. awesome for all ages... get at least 3 flights and you ll be hooked..
Move house to the Peak District, he'll thank you for that forever.
Day trip to Barcelona / Madrid / Rome / Nice etc?
Day in London? Trip on the Eye and then a blast up the Thames on the RIB experience.
Some form of one to one tuition in an activity that he's got some interest in will have the longest impact.
And if you can get in on the act too - all the better.
So Jedi it is. Or go somewhere warm and try kitesurfing.
Mercedes World at Brooklands do under-17 driving experiences, which can include skid control and 4x4 offroad driving. Brands Hatch offer similar, but a bit more pedestrian.
Yamaha MX school? http://www.yamaha-schools.co.uk/
The climb over the O2 looks fun, could combine with a meal out and a concert at the arena after.
Mercedes World! i go past this place on the train most mornings, looks ace. there is an U16's experience package too....
oh frig, sorry simon_g
