What's the cable like? could you not cut it and extend it with a couple of connector blocks?
Trying to source the materials is just as hard; I have found a solution now; found it on Amazon; they had exactly what I needed and they are going to overnight it to me! I'm annoyed because I bought the case and PSU as a package; so you'd think they would have measured the cable length to make sure it reaches all four corners of the case, before selling it as a package!

Aye.
That's where you go when you're heavily intoxicated or there's absolutely nothing else near by right?
Nah that's Doner Kebabs you're thinking of!
I could really go for a Doner Kebab right now, shame no-one here in Wichita knows how to make one :(

Cool you got it sorted, I was meaning just the connector blocks for wiring you could pick up anywhere.

Kentucky Fried Chicken doesn't exist anymore...if they ever market themselves that way they are open to massive law suits. :D
What? They can't advertise the Colonels secret blend of spices and wotnot? They do it here.

I'm sure your digestive system is eternally grateful that you can't get one of these truly vile things. :hehe:

I doubt the digestive system has much to say on the matter when it's just had 20 pints poured through it.

What's wrong with kebab? Hell they saved my life here in Switzerland, I was about to die from cheese and bread and pasta until I found some really good kebab places around here.

True. Seagull in a pita bread sounds quite nice when you're blitzed out your skull! :hehe:

Each to their own but I'd much rather go to a chipper.

On the fast food side I went to subways for the 1st time in ages today

(Headington next to the tanning saloon that bit is for scotty)

They are still my dirty little secret. It was SWMBO 1st ever visit... it did not go well.

Heh is this now standard proceedure when we each mention something in Oxford? :hehe:

I go there every couple of weeks or so. Italian BMT, extra lettuce, sweetcorn, onion, Southwest sauce - that's my usual. :cloud9:

That, but with the honey mustard dressing instead. Yum.

I normally go a couple of times a year, but during one particularly stressful project towards the end of 2011 I ended up going three times in a week. That was baaaad. :hehe:
