I did wonder that, but I have a 100m drum of cable here and I would only
be
saving a couple of metres at most.


Forget saving cable, worry about saving swearing away when trying to fit 3
cables into a single gang back box in a small space above a cooker hood!

Are you able to fit the FCU directly above one of the sockets? You will -
save cable, maintain only horizontal/vertical runs between outlets.
