I often meet with my friends in bars or restaurants near to the job. We went out when there was a celebration for a birthday, christmas, or any special event. Now, We don't go out because this places are blockdown for the pandemic.

Well, I eventually meet my friends at the bar or my house. The perfect time for everybody is at night around 20:00, because we can eat together.
