You will need a cement based flexi adhesive for those tiles and flexi grout...
What size tile is it...?
300x300
I'll buy the 1part gramfix flexi. I've got some grey flexi grout but don't think that will go with the cream tiles



Nah..you want some creamish grout...deffo look better..
i just hate buying a big bag for such a small job (3sqm).
look like i'll have to do it.
what size spacing would be good, 5mm or 2mm?
well i went to my local tile choice and got some flexi grey addy for £13.50.
I would of thought you would of been better with white if you were going for a cream grout.
Seeing as though it is a porch though I would recommend a darker colour grout as a light grout in heavilly soiled/trafficked areas tends to go dark v.quickly...from personal experience

Darker grout on the floor.
We used lighter colour and 5 years later it looks mucky
The colour of the addy doesnt matter because its hidden under the tiles. Its just the grout that needs attention.
Its that bit inbetween the little cross spacer (above) that people see
