May I just borrow this example to say how much I hate the 'layout' of
the new supermarket here? It looks like this:
(x=vegetable y=another vegetable)
---------------------
|Fruit and Vegetables |
|ooo...oooxxx000yyy...|
| ooo...ooooxxxyyy....|
|ooo...000xxxxxyyy....|
|..ooo000......xxxxooo|
|...oooxxx...xxxxxoooo|
|..oooxxxyyyy00000oooo|
---------------------
The area is smaller than in the other examples, as this is only one
side of a 4 sided isle, and there are 4 (or 6?) isles in the fruit and
veggie section.
When I'm in the supermarket, I want the first example, which is how it
used to be. All different apples on one side of the isle, all citric
fruits on the other side, avocados and grapes on the third isle,
between melons and strawberries...
