orgies

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'good times' is the definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for orgies that I've seen before include "Wild parties with excessive drinking and sexual activity" , "Wild licentious parties" , "Acts of immoderate indulgence" , "Drunken revels" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
