tiling a boxed area

[johnscales]

Hi. I've just boxed off a 6 inch gap between the head end of my bath and the wall. I've got some border tiles which i've cut to size for the width of the bath and i'm wondering how best to put them on.
Should I put them on by use of
a) adhesive first then silicone the joins.
b) instead of adhesive, just silicone them on and silicone the gaps.

If b then how best to apply onto the tile.

Thanks

What have you boxed in with-ply,plasterbrd,aquapanel?
I normally use multifix and flexi grout on tile joints.On the tile and bath join and wall+box join use silicone.
