[R] how to sample a block

[Spiderschwein]

Hi,
I want to sample a block of information.

Let's say x is a time series. Using sample(x,5) I get a random sample of
length 5 from x.

Is it possible to sample consecutive observations, i.e. I sample one
observation and also get the next 4 observations?

Thanks a lot!

Martin
