    Default Tubbed or bagged adhesive?

    Hello all,

    I'm going to be fixing 330x250 ceramic tiles in a toilet. The substrate is a mix of plasterboard and plaster walls. I'm debating whether to use tubbed or bagged adhesive. Given the size of the tiles which is verging on large format would tubbed be ok or should I go with a cementious bagged adhesive? (after priming first!)

    Thanks for any suggestions
