Yeah a good place to meet and discuss issues and just to relax in some friendships.
Our invites have dried up as neither of us drink and people regard it as an insult when one refuses a drink or a beer. But such is life and glad that you guys had a good time amidst all of the daily hassles!
I think it was kind of like that here before, as there was the assumption that people can't have fun unless drunk. I used to drive most of the time, so I rarely drank.
Last night was even better, because they are good people - natural and open.
Well then you know what I mean and it is great to let your hair down in a while especially with all of the stress that you are under.
We are in a way happy that things are this way, as it means more time to do our own thing. Nothing worse than sitting sober in a drunk party lol.

Glad that you enjoyed the company as there are enough unnatural and closed people in this world :)
Especially around some drunks. There are those people who are fun and talkative, there are also those who get weird and aggressive.
Oh yeah, in my construction days in small towns, I often went for bar lunches, as they were cheaper and at times delicious.
A little guy would timidly come in and ask for a beer. After the beer a double and after that another double and so on.
What a transformation, as then he suddenly transforms into a very loud lion.
The bartender would phone his house and his missus would arrive indignantly to slap him around and then to take him home :)
Only one of many that I have watched my friend!
