Brian Blessed visits
The Barony of the Southern Wastes
(Incipient)

In the summer of 2001 (January), we had a special guest arrive at McMurdo Station! Not only is he an incredibly cool actor with an impressive stature and a booming voice to match, Brian Blessed is also quite an adventurer (he's attempted to conquer Mount Everest three times), so he came down to see what things were like at the Polus Antarcticus. He's a very good sport, too; he cheerfully accepted our invitation to put on some garb and join us at our January revel. Here are some snapshots of that memorable event.
