Ferrari Driving in Scotland
Once you've driven a Ferrari, no other car comes close. Experience the phenomenal acceleration, braking and handling of one of Maranello's most breathtaking driving machines - the F360. This stunning car has 410bhp, a top speed of 183mph and can accelerate from 0-60mph in just 4.5 seconds. Your experience starts with a briefing on safety and track driving techniques. Next you'll warm up with four laps of Knockhill's 1.3-mile championship racetrack behind the wheel of a 240bhp Seat Leon Cupra. This is to help you learn the racing lines and familiarise yourself with the circuit layout. Then enjoy two demonstration laps by your instructor in the Seat to show you how it's really done. Finally it's time to strap into the fantastic Ferrari 360, driving for six awe-inspiring laps. End with a debrief and a certificate presentation. From the distinctive roar of the engine to the effortless handling, this really will be the drive of your life.

Anton Mossiman's Academy
Unlike some top chefs, Anton Mosimann doesn't spend half his life on TV - but his cooking is all the better for it. He's the holder of the Royal Warrant for Catering Services to HRH the Prince of Wales, and he's been awarded an OBE. Your experience begins with a coffee and a tour of the Mosimann Academy, which Anton set up as a centre of learning and excellence in cooking. The tour will take in Anton's amazing private library, which contains over 6,000 cookery books, dating from as far back as the 15th century. Then you'll watch a cookery demonstration by a top chef, where you'll be able to pick up a few new skills, before being whisked by coach to Mosimann's, the renowned private dining club in Belgravia. Relax in the splendid surroundings of one of the private dining rooms - the building was originally used as a church in Victorian times - and enjoy a fantastic three course dinner with wine.

Tandem Skydiving - Parachute Jump for Two
Throwing yourself out of a plane at 10,000 feet might be considered utter madness. But if close friends start wondering aloud about your sanity (or the contents of your will), you can reassure them that you'll be attached (literally) to an expert instructor and that, frankly, you're in for an experience so exhilarating that you'll probably never stop talking about it. Your experience begins with around an hour of instruction on skydiving and landing techniques, before you go up in the plane. You'll be securely harnessed to your instructor, who will help you jump from the plane (or at least help you fall with style). You'll get about 30 seconds of freefall, which is so completely incredible there's no point in us trying to describe it. Then your instructor will open the parachute and control your descent while you admire the view and try to come to terms with the adrenaline rush. Mind blowing.
