I will explain what 飲み会 is to begin with.

We almost always leave many glasses with drink when we finish 飲み会.
It is a waste, but we don’t mind. I think this is our culture. Keeping other people’s glass full is more important than reducing a waste here.
That's really interesting. Maybe British people are just more frugal about alcohol!

Really big parties aren't common here either. It's usually weddings, anniversary parties or maybe a very important birthday party.
