Outdoor Grand Prix Karting For Four
In these days of touchy-feely fairness, it's not often you get to unleash your competitive side. So try karting for an evening of fast and furiously competitive fun. This fantastic outdoor circuit is where a lot of top F1 drivers, including Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, first got into racing before being lured away by the big bucks. You'll be behind the wheel of a Pro 390cc Kart, which reaches speeds of up to 70mph (and believe us, that will feel twice as fast in a kart). The group are split into lightweights and heavyweights - done to ensure a level playing field, as driver weight makes a big difference in these little machines. Start off with a video and safety briefing, followed by qualifying laps to get used to the karts and the 1,200m outdoor international circuit. Then let your competitive streak loose in three quick-fire race heats. The leading points scorers go on to take part in the grand final, followed by a trophy presentation for the top three drivers.

Sailing Day for Two
Splice the main brace, shiver me timbers and other such nautical nonsense... there'll be none of that on this experience, which offers an introduction to sailing in a friendly and informal atmosphere aboard the 34ft yacht Half Nelson. It's great fun - exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and the best way to experience the beauty and freedom of the open sea. After coffee, biscuits and a safety briefing, your Yachtmaster skipper will introduce you to the basics of sailing and in no time at all you'll be sailing down to the Hamble or Cowes. After a lunch break ashore you'll be back on the water, and if you're feeling energetic you can put theory into practice and take an active part in the afternoon's sailing on the Solent or Southampton Water. If you'd rather, you can just sit back in the cockpit and let the crew do the hard work while you relax and enjoy an afternoon at sea. All refreshments aboard are also included. All in all a very civilised approach to a wonderful pastime.

Introduction to Bread Making
The smell of freshly baked bread has to be amongst the top ten best smells in the world, right up there with freshly mown grass. Contrary to popular belief, making your own bread doesn't have to be difficult and time consuming, turning out like a block of concrete after all your efforts. Or at least it won't by the time you've finished this experience. Join a top French baker and head chef who will show you the best way of lifting and folding your dough to create lots of air and therefore produce a lighter bread with less effort. More importantly, everything is taught using domestic equipment and appliances, meaning methods are easily duplicated at home, so you can turn your kitchen into a bakery whenever you like. Use your newfound skills to make a variety of breads from three different types of dough. Enjoy the results of your hard work by sitting down to lunch, including a well deserved glass of red or white wine.
