Chat and coffee in the library, lol SSSHHHHHHHHH!
So sorry the friendly lady who is organising the Nelson event didn't consider your specific drinking needs. It is just - some people prefer to separate a good discussion from the downing of alcoholic drinks. If you think about it and consider the quality of many pub chats, than there even might be some benefit to this separation (if you value the word, this is ...).

Anyway - nothing wrong with a good beer at the right time. Not sure though about the proposed sculling session (assuming that you don't refer to the use of this term in rowing). Not everybody likes to consume alcoholic beverages in quantities sufficient to destroy the resident grey matter, but each to their own.

Question - are you offering to organise an alternative meeting for the people who prefer spirituality in liquid form?
