hello Rob
I would recommend brick style for this kind of tile. Did a living room in same size limestone.
expansion joint should be 5mm, that's a big area so you will need few expansions
Good luck

as above, brick style , 3mm grout joint. don't forget to seal tiles before laying

thanks guys yes thought the same was thinking about 2 thirds brick bond instead of normal

Random set for me, this is then not as regimental as brickbond...

tony do you seal stone before you lay it ?

absolutely, almost allways, take sharp edge off and seal. some marble tiles can do before grout .
