Hey, Thanks for putting those pictures up Marianne - when I checked the first time the foundation picture wasn't there but the date indicates you put it up at the same time as the others??
I really would like to get a digital camera - so much easier than trying to scan pictures in - Maybe i will buy myself an early b/day present - a little indulgence...forgot my password so I'm anonymous

I hate to be a pain, but...
Foundations are damproofed with a coat of bituminous sealent. Bitumen is obtained by fractional distillation of crude oil and is a chemically distinct material than that of tar, which is obtained by the destructive distillation of coal.
Just a friendly fyi!! Cheers
