Lost mate

An ex-colleague, John, was supposed to meet us for a booze last friday. In the end, he didn't turn up nor did he contact us, loser!!!! I'm angry, and of course I should be when he stood us up. Not one of us, but three. So me and the others just went along with the usual plan for dinner, amazingly we started to speak as if we were tipsy - sharing gossips, personal life and office politics. It was a very fun evening, just that I felt bad allowing my colleague to foot the bill himself. It wasn't cheap at all!
