The second and associated point is not to attempt to tile around

Ain't that the truth!


Thats what I do if asked to lay laminate flooring in a bathroom - if I
can't talk them out of it.......


I thought laminate floor had to be able to move slightly? Doesn't fixing a
toilet pan through it stop this?

It doesn't *have* to be able to move..its just that it *will* if its
not...bolted down firmly ..by e.g. a toilet pan screwed through it..
