    Default somethings are out of your control

    just finishing a wet room for a mate ,hillock 600 by 300 porcelain,600 by 600 on the floor,all tiles on walls ,lay floor ,last row down to floor and im 3 tiles short, no probs ill order another box,box comes all the same codes ect,but the tiles already on, have a pattern that runs top left to bottom right, so if you turn them they still run top left to bottom right,new box runs the opposite way ,supplier had to check through a new delivery of thousands of tiles and couldnt find any of the origional,phoned nationwide branches and sourced a box
