Hey Chris
I can sort some pictures out when I've got myself sorted out computer-wise (I'm using an old spare cos my laptop broke and I haven't got software to resize the pic for upload here)
Basically, the cable comes out of the brifter, through housing to the braze on cable stops at the downtube. Then the cable runs down into the guide under the bottom bracket, and up behind the seattube to the derailleur straight into the clamp. My only issue with this setup is I have no fine tuning, so I'm going to get an inline cable adjuster and install that at some point. I hope you can visualise that ok?
