🏙️ 7 DAYS OF FUN: TABLE TENNIS & $20 PARMA TAKEOVER! 🏙️
The weekend starts early! Leave the streaming apps at home and join Dan for a massive night of urban exploration, waterfront sights, cutthroat table tennis showdowns, and cheap pub eats. We’re heading to the heart of Docklands for a crisp evening stroll that winds past public art, lands us straight into a battle of the paddles, and caps off with $20 parmas!
7 Days of FUN runs on four simple pillars: Good Chat, Waterfront Views, Total Table Tennis Domination, and Top-Tier Parma Deals.
