Oh the laughter contiues with this little tiling job.

Have talked to Lithofin and they say it could be polymours from the grout seeping into the edge of the tiles.

They also mentioned that even thought its porcelain it may have required sealing before laying. News to me?

It can happen. Certainly on some cheaper grade porcelain. Do you have aby info on the tile! What's its absorbtion rate?
