Ok thanks all. I was only going off what the instructions for the addy said. And it does say that it can be used in bathrooms for shower cubicles etc. And the theme on here is to follow manufacturers instructions so in all fairness I didn't think I was doing anything wrong.

I only stuck one tile on to see how it worked out. And then took it off again.

the only problem was the size of the tiles at those sizes it takes forever for a dispersion (air drying) adhesive to work!
