hi mate....
White star will be fine depending on what size tile you are using....any thing bigger than a 300x250 you can use a cement based adhesive...Bal single part flexible will give you plenty of time to work with it....it has a setting time of 16hrs and a pot life of 5hrs......
Just use a grout suitable for bathrooms....usually a flexible one as well.....
