Just spoke with KJ, things not looking good still, he is totally stuck near Boxhill, and if anyone doesn't know Boxhill it will be awful in this weather, and now can't move, I have unfortunately tried to get my car out to get to him, but I am stuck at the bottom of a hill too, so that's me buggered!
I have told him where to get some food from, and offered him a place to stay if he can get to me, but that's if he can drive the 8 miles or so!
The problem he has is he is stuck and has no breakdown, recovery, etc.. what can he do in this situation?

If there's anyone in Leatherhead who can help, KJ needs help urgently.
His car is stuck on Mill Way B2033 at Headley; he has his wife and 3-month old baby in the car.
He is about to attempt to walk to Leatherhead to try and get either snow-chains or socks for the car and food for Lene - she *must* be fed in the next three hours.
So if you're anywhere near and can help - please do.

If he is a mile from Leatherhead he OUGHT to be OK. The problem is that the SE is going to get another shed-load of snow tonight... up to 8 inches according to BBC SE. It has already started here in Kent, and the wind is drifting the damn stuff. At least 10inches already in my back garden. The next feasible time for a journey down this way will be Friday lunchtime.... .

Would love to help, but living where I do I would not be able to drive 1/2 mile in any direction without a SERIOUS 4x4... partly because all the roads are blocked by people without them!

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=Mill+Way+B2033&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wlThis is where he is according to Neils post, when I spoke to him he was stuck on Lodge Bottom Road, just south of where he is now! You will need a seriously good car to get there, they are very steep, quiet country roads out that way!

Use multimap, search for Leatherhead and pan SE towards Headley. Lodgebottom Road is quite visible.
You'll need a damn serious vehicle - good luck!
