    I had exactly the same thing last year, 3 slightly different colour tiles in brick bond, even with stacking them randomly and taking from random piles, it still ended up with 3 stripes, I'll see if I can find the posts on here

    EDIT here it is, post 12, spot the 3 stripes by the hob

    Me, too, as taught by my father.... all screwheads no matter where... nice and equal... what's wrong with that? Easy on the eye... attention to detail is no bad thing, and only takes a second. Not OCD, just quality.
