This wreched life is full of give and take, so when I'm building I foolishly like to give SWMBO a say in what happens. Causes a sense of harmony on the home front, and harmony with a Thai wife of many years is to be cherished.
 
So it comes to the choice of floor tiles, again. [emoji21] I rather like rough faced outside floor tiles so you don't slip base over apex and break something, like the bottle of beer you're swigging on.
SWMBO likes the shiny ones as you can clean them and they look nice, bright, shiny and deadly.
So we've come to tile an outside fairly protected area (according to SWMBO it's classified as an inside area and must be cleaned constantly).
I've had my wicked way and ordered all the beautiful nonslip tiles for around the pool area, so I'd like advice on what tiles to get for SWMBO's area?
They have to be easily cleaned, look fresh and bright, but not deadly.
I know it's an impossible ask.

I took SWMBO tile shopping for her outside party area, she went for a semi rough finish tile.

They look pretty good, and looks like you can hose them off.

So my tiles and her tiles are going down and now she says my tiles are the best. I'm probably going to pay in some way for that win [emoji848].
Really it doesn't matter as both sets of tiles look ok to me, and hers are a bit rough, not the skating rink type.
I'll get some pics here tomorrow.

Some pics. The red tiles were a recommendation from the Kera tile people who supplied the pool tiles, grout and cement at wholesale prices.
The tiles SWMBO ordered from Global House. The red tiles go around the pool and the other tiles go around the veranda, on top of the tiles that SWMBO doesn't like.
I must admit they are hard to clean and stain. I bought them locally before I had the knowledge that AAA grade tiles and AAA grade tiles aren't the same.
Some Pics.
