JK vs BigRed

@Rancid-Schnitzel said in JK vs 2017 - building BigRed:
As I said, you just never know over there. My first May was an absolute cracker. It was glorious. The next year I expected more of the same and got rain and snow. Never experienced another May like the first one. Beautiful countries but utter shit house weather.
I'm not sure if you'll be seeing much talent when there's still snow about. You don't get much of an impression when winter gear is still on.
Based on what Ive seen so far, Im quite happy the winter gear is still on!
