Beginners Guide To Tiling!...

Remove the duff plaster, dry line then tank it. I'd suggest using Mapei P9 adhesive as its got a very long pot life. Mapei UCP grout is fine but it might be a bit quick for you.

Grey grout with white metros looks ten times better than white grout, in my opinion. You only need a very light grey, nothing too dark. Mapei Ultracolour plus silver grey or Tilemaster grout 3000 light grey.

Thanks Magga - If you guys are suggesting it I may just go for it. It would give the tiles more definition as well. Thanks for the grout suggestions too

Thanks Rookery - very helpful. Is the Tilemaster grout any slower?

Yes it might be better for you as you don't have to clean it off so quickly like UCP.
