Unfortunately it looks like it all needs to come off and started again.

It doesn't look like you'll have too much trouble getting them off and you may well be able to clean the tiles and reuse them.

PDC one just came off very simply in my hand :(

I'd put something in the bath to protect it and then try to lever a tile off next to one the gaps.
This is the trouble, I haven't been able to have anything installed so I'm totally without a bathroom & now I don't know where to begin

Do u have a wall paper scraper or an old knife Nicky?
See if u can scrape the tiles clean. It's a dispersion adhesive and the longer it's exposed to the air the more it will dry, making removal more difficult.
If it scrapes away easily just take them off one at a time and clean them as u go.
Tedious but at least they can be reused.
Do u at least have a toilet and sink?

I have some tools I can clean them up with, yes. Upsettingly I don't have a toilet or sink because the tiler said the job is easier with everything taken out first. My plumber has told me over the phone how I can refit the toilet bowl but I've already taken the cistern etc to the tip so I'll be roughing it out for a while longer by the looks of things. I'm so heartbroken it's making me cry. I know firsthand that worse things happen in life but I was so excited about my new little bathroom.
Thank you so much to all of you for taking the time to reply to me & for all your help & advice. I guess I got my work cut out
