   I wasn't sure at the time so I ran a multi iteration test using various block   
   sizes (multiples of 8 or 16 bytes I think) and never found an occasion when   
   they   
   weren't contiguous. I always allocated the memory at the start of the programme   
   so that there was no heap fragmentation. I think I also checked to confirm that   
   the offset part of the pointer was always zero (0) which it always seemed to   
   be.   
   HTH.
