Well I'm most of the way through my kitchen floor and thought I'd stick a couple of photos up (grouting and skirting still to go on). Thanks to everyone on here who's answered my questions over the last couple of months - you've made a novice tiler very happy.

School boy error #1. Mistakenly buying rapid set adhesive. I could only lay about 4 tiles before it started to go off in the bucket and then had to clean everything out and mix up some more. My arm feels like it's going to fall off.

A couple of tiles have a bit if lippage but nothing too bad and overall I'm pretty happy with the outcome. Once I'm done with the floor I've got walls with window reveals and trim to do so no doubt I'll have more questions!

Cheers everyone - great site.

looks good mate but are the kitchen tiles not the same as the hallway tiles? could you not have continued from the hallway as one? not skitting the job just may have looked better if possible to do it that way :thumbsup:
