But as I often say - if it was easy they'd be doing it themselves!
 
Did you work from a few boxes at a time to mix them up a bit? Bs gives a tile tolerance and unfortunately 1mm is still a 1st tile.

Try to use a square on your line and but tiles upto that from the otherside and if there's a spacer not quite tight it'll still leave your tile as square as it can be.
