Time's Ran Out

Imho all grout seems to be going off very quick these days.
In 1973 my brother and I had to grout a couple of bathrooms overlooking the sea at Highcliffe.
White cement was what was the grout of the day and due to inclement weather we got through both our vests, 3 games of football, lunch and afternoon tea waiting for it to ‘take up’.
Ah! Those were the good old days.

You could try mapei ff it's a slower setting grout
Yeah never been keen on mapei grout but might be worth a try

Weberjoint Premium for me.
Leave for half an hour then clean up (even in this weather).
That’s what I was going to get a bag of tomorrow as Ctd is just around the corner from the job
