Hello Mark

MS| The main wall I've done with full tiles has a gap around the

MS| full tiles as in will the edges be ok when they are in and

MS| being from the middle of a tile.

Nope - if you want a good finish, you only cut two slivers from each
tile, and discard the central section. Otherwise you do get exposed
grain, unless you grout proud which looks just as bad.

Stick 'em so the cut edge is towards the wall you're finishing off
against.
