Always get spare tiles when tiling!

As my uncle did when he tiled the bathroom in this house when it was new.
The spare tiles are in new condition. The originals are almost 70 years old.
They don't match :-(

But they'll be used for patching.

That's odd! Wish I had some of the old 30s black and white tiling
though, always liked that.
