I can totally see how it could be read like that!
Five-a-side is a specific format of football (soccer), aimed at more casual play with a much lower bar to skill level. Outside of five-a-side leagues (which do exist), it’s rarely played with fixed teams and often ran in a more “pick up group” fashion.
Five-a-side football (soccer). I’m not a sporty person, but started going with a local group a few years ago and have reaped the benefits of doing some intensive team exercise once per week. I go with a bunch of guys way older than I am, and it’s amazing how fit and healthy they are compared to the average person I meet of their age. I certainly plan to keep this up so long an injury doesn’t prevent me.
Nice. I’ve not seen any of your other videos yet, but I can say that for this one, I really loved that you just jumped straight in to the action and kept the video tight, without missing important details.
I really admire her after seeing this. She is so dialled in to what’s going on in her working area, and she doesn’t get flustered when probed with follow-up questions. Regardless of party, we could do with more people like her running and being elected as MPs - but I imagine she wouldn’t even consider it.
I don’t code in C++ (although I’m somewhat familiar with the syntax). My understanding is the header files should only contain prototypes / signatures, not actual implementations. But that doesn’t seem to be the case here. Have I misunderstood, or is that part of the joke?
She was 89 and no doubt lead a truly fulfilling life, and so I think objectively it’s not a sad passing - she had a truly remarkable life and long life.
That said, she was a significant part of my childhood, and always on the television in the various households I’ve lived in for one show or another. It feels like losing a beloved grandmother, and I’m devastated. RIP Maggie.
