Can Anyone Help Get Me Started With Setting Out For Half-bond?

It generally wraps around or thereabouts as long as it doesn't leave a ridiculous cut. Bit of a judgement call really.
But always start at window if the window is opposite the door.
Are these tiles ceramic?
Depending on your skill level you could introduce a method know as closers, effectively eliminating your 'slithers' around the window.
But it can be a difficult task depending on material!
Um... closers... please tell me more? Never heard of that one. They are 8mm ceramic and the door is on the wall opposite to the window , but the door is in the right corner.

Just check them to see if they are flat or bowed then, because if they are bowed they will look pants half bonded.

Closers is a new one on me too lol.
 
Spot on @JulianSidney!
Sick to back teeth of half bond yaaaaaaaawn!
Random is good!
As far as closers are concerned, before I go into the complications of it, take one tile and cut 10mm from the short edge.
Effectively making them 390mm long.
Then file it sand it, whatever u need to do to make your cut edge look like a factory finish.
If you can be bothered to do that, I will go into the long winded method of closers! That fair enough? 🙂
