Right TileFlair manager called me. She was very good actually. This title simply does not line up. Manufacturers are allowed a 3mm +/-. She was happy for me to change tiles for something single coloured or the same design but paler i.e. so it would be less obvious. She did confess that no-one does it vertically - so I am truly DA MAN! Even so, she opened whilst I was on the phone; a different batch number and laid them out on the floor - exactly the same issue. Can I live with it???. Her only suggestion to get the effect I want was to use mosaics ( on that yucky mesh stuff - where you've got to be spot on when you bed it! ) Kindly she sent me photo's of their in store displays - also stating no one has ever mentioned it - ( I've got fecking OCD now haven't I - caught it from you twats !)

On my floor ones ? I agree - but it’s still out . If I grouted it - would look sh*t Managed to get through to tileflair - boss is going to call me !

&£&£)&&&&£& ! That’s me swearing !!

Right ! Tiles on the floor . Just rotating the last one - wrong both ways !!! Ffs !

Yeah but some are stuck on the fing wall ? Have emailed the showroom . Going to clear a space and try and do a vertical line on the floor - ffs !!! Strangely I do get the ‘random’ line up ! I bet their horizontal grout lines vary in width to solve this in the fing showroom ....

Can’t see any order Took the highest tile off and cut it they other way round ( only 2 possibilities ) neither line up - but one is ‘better’ than the other . Tried other boxes aswell - same issue

Thought you had it then ... but !!!

???? The show room ones appear to have no order

Yep . Same box !!

Nothing I can do ! There is no right orientation or pattern that tessellated

I’ll have to live it . My grout lines being inline more important. ?

Right! Found a photo of them from the showroom . They run them horizontally. It’s hard to tell but I bet they add a mm or take a mm out to line them up .

This is the same tile . It’s aligned I.e edge is straight - but to line pattern would push it out

I took the top one off and rotated and tried another - the same issue !!!

I have . They are spot on

Thought I might be out horizontally I.e tiles twisted but appears not

Must be how they ‘print’ or produce the face pattern ; I.e an error margin

Yes - grout lines are spot on .....

Stress ! Spirit level said vertical at least to my eyes - laser said no ! . Trust laser now ! Annoyingly the patterns don’t seem to line up which is a bit crap ... Oh yes ! Changed to these ratchet type spacers - I think at the moment they are better !!

Bracing myself for more ‘experiments’ in tiling - hardcore now !

Coooorrrrr

Who’s a bad boy ! No leaks !!

Thank you Uncle Nick . I tried to tell the big boys but they wouldn’t listen !!

You mean a half human entity? ? Anyway I thought Wales was in lockdown so Nick should be at home masticating ...

Mummies crying now . Not sure why . Just says the odd word to uncle Nick like bastard , (expletive deleted) , (expletive deleted) head ....
