    Cost effective tile cutter for 600x300 pocelain floor tile cutter

    Best Sweet mince pies!

    Wife picked up some all butter almond topped mince tarts from Aldi for me to try, have to say they are pretty good. They are tarts rather than pies so a bit shallower, I think I prefer this as the pastry/filling ratio is better imo.

    Let's have some Grout talk

    Been using Webber adhesive and grout for the last couple of years and quite like it, I have now switched over to Ultra as it's loads cheaper and have found the grout to be pretty good, goes off pretty quick which I like.

    I bought one of these blades to try after reading this thread and have to say after using it this week on 10mm porcelain that it leaves the cleanest cut of any blade I had used previously.
