Tiling Tips: Is there a weight limit when tiling a wall?

thanks whitebeam, just another couple queries for learning:

how did you satisfy yourself that other the areas of skimmed plaster were sound?
i assume the tile weight was within the weight rules, but if it wasn't, what would you have then done?

I scraped another area with a scraper and found that loose as well which I removed, there was some plaster undercoat on the the lower areas which was solid but higher parts of the plastering was suspossingly been pva'ed and skimmed...not on your life.

The worrying part was where the plaster was being pulled off the wall was where the bath was going to be, for some reason the client preferred that the bath was fitted after the tiling.
