I'll be tiling large format porcelain on walls
I was wandering around one of my local tile shops today, I wasn't looking for tiles (looking for a drain seal kit) and because I wasn't under pressure to buy tiles it was quite a relaxing experience to stroll around just checking out the tiles on display. It occured to me how cheap the tiles...
My old Bosch laser and pole are now after serving well, on the blink.

Pics attached. Asking 150 the lot. So that's 7quid a bag for 25kg bags. Needs...
Everybody seems to be selling tile levelling systems these days. So I thought I'd have a quick look on one of the websites I use to by tat from. They do actually do some good stuff amongst the crap. It's worth digging through. You can often get samples sent over FOC if you have an account that...

Laid a floor using this adhesive on Thursday. You see, I have never been impressed with bostik tiling materials, then on Wednesday, last mad rush to stock before starting new job the next day.
