Layout puzzle - Metro tiles

Hi all, Got to do a kitchen this week. Here's the trick, there is a window ledge that is exactly one tile (20x10 Metro bevels) high up from the worktops. Which sounds perfect, but what if, and I haven't checked yet but, the socket height falls bang smack in the middle of the third row up. I like, for obvious reasons, to have my horizontal grout line run right through the middle of any sockets, as you can't cut a socket whole out of the middle of a 20x10. Any bright ideas welcomed 🙂 It's brick bond too just to throw an extra spanner in the works 🙂

Most kitchens have at least two double sockets nowadays. Set out to walls/units/windows as usual and cut the tiles around the sockets using a wet cutter or angle grinder
 
sometimes, its best not to overthink these things, sometimes.. it is, what it is ;-) having confidence to know that whatever you do, tiling wise, its right ;-)
