Yes I can its not. Use a bagged cementatious single part flexible adhesive. Ask your tile shop to recommend one for the tile you have purchased from them. I prefer BAL or Mapei.

Cheers

Thanks for that roseberry, you learn something new everyday! It can be confusing when you see stuff that says wall and floor tile adhesive. We got the grout that you mix up which is flexible so the job will be a good un.
Thanks again H
