i for example, cant queue up in tescos etc and just stand there, if there are boxes of gum or sweets or something i will make sure that the columns are equal (gum boxes usually have 2 columns per box of packets of gum) and if there is an uneven number, i'll put the last packet so its in the centre of the 2 columns.
