Hi there,
I have been doing an extension for a couple of years and its finally coming to an end and as part of the exztension we had an integral garge built with a bedroom above it. Anyhow I was concsidering painting the garage floor once I've manage to clear all the mancrap out of it but I would really like to tile it just in case one day I could afford that classic bike/car. The floor is concrete, do I need to put down a screed or something what kind of tile adesive do I need and what type of tile wouold be suitable.
Thanks in advance...

You can buy tile adhesive & grout fro concrete floors at any DIY store. Just look at the description on the container.
if the concrete isn't float or trowel finished (smooth, no holes) then you might need to apply a coat of "floor leveller" to give a smoother surface for tiling.
if it IS smooth enough to tile direct, then seal with dilute PVA first to kill some of the suction. :o)
