Dieter, thanks for your comment that:

* In your code, `offset` is `0`, `1`, `2`, ...
but it should be `0 *8`, `1 * 8`, `2 * 8`, ...

But you concluded with essentially the same solution proposed by MRAB, so that would obviate the need to write item by item because it writes the whole buffer at once. 

Thanks for your help.
