Drilling porcelain tiles
 

Right - I have a sort of answer. Bought this diamond coated cutter from
Screwfix:-

And it's not exactly fast but worked. You need to get a centre first for
it - I used a multi-purpose drill bit for this, or one of those flat head
tile drills would probably work too. I used a slow speed - about 200 rpm -
and dipped it in water frequently. Took about 5 minutes for a 6mm hole in
7mm thick tiles.
