How did you lay yours? Junkers suggests nailing directly to the joists through the groove with a headless nail and then gluing the tongues.

Adam (the carpenter guy I gave you details of) fitted them by gluing them fully to the floor then nailing them to the chipboards (I have a more modern house). This was to avoid squeaking as some of my chipboards were squeaky.
He did a great job, also cutting the door frames to perfection to slide the boards underneath.

I did not sand mine yet.
I still had tradesmen coming in / out so thought I do it after. Now I will probably do it before I sell in a couple of years ao it looks fresh.
If you have space to keep the spare lengths, do so as you might want to keep some to make a coffe table / bench / desk / workbench.
Put some photos up of that floor!
