Totally off topic I know but as this list knows all ;-) has anyone seen 
this before, is it dry rot, wet rot or an animal, if I know what then I 
can see what I will need to treat it with.

here are some  pictures of an affected roof beam (truss) - about three 
are affected

I am pleased with the way the wood has cleaned up, see top right corner 
of above picture, underneath all the carpets and muck I found a 
reasonable wooden floor, which I have started to clean and its coming up 
quite nice - horrible dusty job but someones got to do it.

here is what I started with

with OM and 21/2

all other pictures taken with Oly digital cameras :-)

thanks and Iechyd Da  (Don't mention the Rugby)
