    Any tile merchant will have them, E4 - E5 each.
    you can get spacer blocks that keep the same size joints.
    you can use mortar with water proofer mixed in it to build.
    keep motar back about 3-4mm and grout remaining level with edge oh block.
    You should also use steel rods to add strength to wall.
