    I may get alot of flack for this but its worth it, My son is nearly 9 years old he has had a passion for red Ferrari's since he was six, It is his only dream to have a short ride in a ferarri, I have tried every site in the uk to arrange one for him over the past 3 months but i have had no joy, My only hope is that there is someone on here in the uk within 80 miles of derbyshire who is kind enough to help us out i will gladly pay for this help if anyone offers to help, I will keep my fingers crossed and hope to hear from someone. The sites i refer to which i have tried are the ferarri experience sites. I am asking if somone can offer similar experience for my child at a safe location for all concerned. This however can be discussed upon any offers.
    regards

    One's Son calling to the faraway towns
    Now that Rob has declared - Alamo come down
    One's Son calling to F-C-U-K
    Come out of the Club Scud, all you boys and girls
    One's Son calling, now don't look at us
    All know tony-h goderator has been to the West
    One's Son calling, angelis, hear it ring
    steve f's reaching for that TopGear thing

    CHORUS
    Bugsworth Basin's nearby, the barge is coming in
    Comrade stopped posting and steve's hair is growing thin
    Database error, but I have no fear
    One's Son is begging-but I live by the river

    One's Son calling to the Derbyshire zone
    Forget it, Father can't go it alone
    One's Son calling upon Ashton-upon-Trent
    Quit holding out-and drive to Derwent
    One's Son calling-and I don't wanna shout
    But when he was walking-he passed by Kinder Scout
    One's Son calling, see he ain't got no rides
    Except for that one from beans on the side

    CHORUS

    Now get this
    One's Son calling, yeah, I read it, too
    An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
    One's Son calling with his Pop by his side
    After all this, won't you give 'em a ride?

    He'll never feel so much alive

    I find it hard to believe that nobody wants to help this father in the idea of giving his son a super day.
    My son is 8 yrs old and I love the smile on his face when we drive the Ferrari.
    Just imagine the smile on the face of his little boy who can only dream of a Ferrari. It's a pity that you are so far away.

    Come on guys. There must be someone close enough.
