I got back from the party before you did from your feast. (one was at a party, the other at a feast)

  • I got back from the party before you did.
  • (you were both at the party) I got back from the party before you did from your feast.
  • (one was at a party, the other at a feast) Is the second one correct grammatically?
  • Thank you I think the second sentence is right and the differense is that in the first sentence your interlocutor returned from the party, and in the second he/she returned from the feast (a different social gathering).
