Grout and adhesive have little in common. I'd avoid the combined

I think you can get general purpose powdered adhesives from Ardex etc
that will do floors and walls. Generally, wall adhesives are lightweight
to minimise sagging.

Thanks for the replies. I was told I could not use wall grout to grout
floor tiles and I could not see why. I appreciate that adhesives are a
different matter.

I did use the all in one products to begin with but I then tried the
separate approach and found the separate adhesive was much faster
setting and much stickier so tiles didn't slip or fall off.

I haven't dared to use powders as being a novice I am not sure I would
get the consistency right.
