Leif K-Brookes! This is a very good reply! It has cheered me up for the day,
it looks so miserable out there... Your good fruit shop looks very nice
indeed... And your bad one is very bad indeed.
But, perhaps a fair minded observer would incline to say the site in
question is not as disorganised as your "bad fruit shop". I admire efforts
to achieve order without so much neatness, I like it when some people are
able to embrace more complex order. I guess, bottom line, I don't think it
so disorganised.
