Sometimes its nice to do these jobs...I find it very relaxing.
The job I have Tues and Wednesday is 6 x 3 brick tiles ( not metro) but they dont want them half bond ! Floor is from Topps ( Henley Cool)

I tend to get one every thursday , most are sound but some are .. well not so nice.. if ya get my drift.. :) but it is work.

Ye i sub to the plumbing comp that does these... sometimes they upgrade the tiles to better ones...

Did one last week and the old tiles had been on 18 yrs and had to tie into the old tiling and believe it or not topps still sold them lol lol ... different shades as you would expect but jeez , never thought they would still get them..

It was a proper mare trying to tie into the blokes tiling as well ..

Got aroung 18M2 to do, bathroom walls. It's quite a big bathroom in an old farmhouse, 18m2 is only half height. then got a Karndean floor going down in there once the builder has sorted the levels out (currently runs out by 75mm from corner to corner) will never be perfect but certainly needs a bit of attention! then got a fireplace to do in the same house. Had some 600x400 slate left over from the floor I did a couple of weeks ago which I'm going to cut down to 100x100 or 150x75.... not sure yet. There's only around 1.5m2 to tile but got the whole day to play around and create something.

Here's before. Lovely & pink!
