Tiling this wall is going to be fun I told Derek.
It will cover the big hole that the plumber had to make to terminate the gas and water pipes that connected the old internal gas hot water system. So first we got a sheet of ply and cut out the wall shape, now I sit for a couple of hours each day and hand fit every tile. This is going to take a while. If I had left the tiles on the lace, we would have had to order more tiles than we needed and the glueing would have been too smelly for me. This way we can spread the tiles out a bit more and a little spot of glue on the back of each tile then press it into place. Yep, it is going to take a little while. I have left the odd tile off so I can glue and screw the whole board to the wall, then replace those tiles then grout it, then all done.
