In my few experiences of being in Spain, i don't recall much use of plasterboard over there. The D&D issue on this thread originally was dealing with stone onto plasterboard. Maybe directly onto concrete or the block work they use over there it is more acceptable, and for a guess, with the general everyday tempratures over there moisture wouldn't hang around too long to do much damage.

As it is, despite and in addition to everything that has been previously written in the thread it is not an acceptable method of fixing according to British Standards Guidlines/Rules whichever way you want to interpret them. I have never used the method as I am quite new to the industry and I don't forsee that I ever will so I am no expert on the subject. Fascinating reading though.
