Default Tiling Question

SWMBO has asked me to tile the kitchen. No problem there but the tiles she
wants are oblong (approx 6" x 3") and she wants it to look like a brick wall
effect, i.e. each row moved over half a tile. Has anybody any tips or
advice on how best to acheive this? Can you get " T " shaped spacers or do
I have to cut one leg off of the normal " + " ones? Presumably this would
take longer than 'normal' tiling as each row would have to be laid out
individually instead of tiling normally with standard spacers.

I hope that makes sense, it does to me.

TIA

John
