There's loads of old ruins on the moor that date back thousands of years. Cardinham is topper now for mountain bikes but that stomp from there past St Neot to minions wouldn't be easy. Great place though. That Jamaica inn drama was all filmed on that patch. Some of the horses came from the stables where the bairn rides. It's probably the best place Iv ever lived.

Unlike me you spelt Cardinham correctly. Ive checked and the fort was spelt Scraesdon Fort. There's a few pics of it in google images. We had to climb up and down those walls and run round and round the top through the brambles till people passed out. There was a wood on the side of it and part of the assault course was through it. I seem to remember a very steep bank which was almost impossible to get up in the wet. Also ropes for shinning across about 40 foot in the air with no safety nets.
I'm off to kip. I think i might have nightmares. Wish i'd never opened the thread now.:)
 


"We don't need a left back" is one of the most hillarious things I've ever read on this board.

He'd be the signing of the season & most premier league clubs would take him without a second thought.

Bit deafening when the attacks were going off in the cellar levels.

We don't need a LB. Our 1st choice LB is fit in about 2 weeks, and I'd rather play him regularly and let him improve, than bring in a 34 year old on criminal wages for 5 months. There are many better uses for our wage budget than that.

Yeah whatever.
 
@cornish mackem.
If you go on youtube and type in:-
Commando: On the Front Line: Episode 1 - The Shock of Capture

Go to 3 minutes 54 seconds.
The torture chamber.:)
It's just a brief glimpse with no location named but i recognised it immediately.

We often had forced marches towards minions. We sometimes set off from a place called cardinum but the route wasn't as the crow flies.
All the gear was wet through after 1 day and once it swelled it wouldn't fit in the backpacks.

I might have the spelling wrong but we used to go on speed assault courses around scraisdon fort. It was a disused fort type ruins. We were forced to run through deep bramble bushes with no protection. I think a lot of the stuff we were made to do would be illegal now.

Nah, homosexual buggery was decriminalised in 1967.
