I find this statement difficult to reconcile with your earlier one
that, "The route i would like to take requires digging a trench and
the total cable distance comes to about 70m inluding going around
walls etc."

Is there really no way of doing a shorter run, even if it means
digging up some concrete or going under a wall? A lot of the
problems people have mentioned become less as the distance between
buildings reduces.
