Can I just correct something which appears here:-

PCI Timberflex (C2F) is a fast setting two component adhesive, a cement powder mixed with an acrylic co-polymer emulsion liquid.

Especially suited to fixing all types of tile directly onto any type of timber floor
Suitable for under-floor and under-tile heating. It will withstand cyclic temperature change
Note: It meets standards for use in multiple accomodation situations.

I normally use Weber as its cheap and does the job
but I really like working with Dunlop grouts and adhesives they are not cheap though.

also i quite like working with nano light very light and fluffy

Weber rapid set is well fast, not keen on their grouts though. I've now moved over to mapei stuff their keraquick is just ace.

I don't know how many of our thinsets and mortars over here make it over to your shores, but the two I use most are international, so I know you all can get them, and that's Laticrete and Mapei. I'm kind of partial to Laticrete, not only because they have a terrific product, but also because I grew up with the family that owns it. In fact, my grandfather was the very first person to place a retail order with them in 1956, so we kinda go back aways. :-)
