Me and marco will get him from there!

I've also found a number for the pub in the nearby village of Headley - I'm going to call them and find out if they know of a local farmer that might help

The other thing is, that ahead its coming into a residential area, maybe some door knocking might be in order!

done deal!!

jimo! thanks for the help!

mario pack some warm cloths mate..
and boots..

and get a shovel..

guys, if me and mario go, what baby food do i need to buy KJ baby?

after speaking to JimO (Thanks again mate) we are going to take some food for them..

we think she is 3/4months old..
any adivce?

Hold fire - I've found someone with a 4x4 just a couple of miles away - I've spoken with them - they are willing to go and collect them

Keep off Kayjey's phone for a couple of minutes while I call them

Brilliant news!!

OK nigel... let me know asap

Wherever he is i can get him this evening and put him up in my house... if he would like to

i love it when a plan come together...

(been wanting to say that...)

Excellent news Nigel! Well done.

Forum power at it's best here. Well done all

Nigel does klaas need picking up later? Let me know i have the stilo and can go grab some snow chains...

Right - a local land owner with a 4x4 has got to Kayjey, Joke and Lene - I've spoken with the landlady of the local pub, just a couple of miles away - she's willing to put them up - they should be warm and dry within the next few minutes

Apparently, the police have arrived too, as they were trying to close the road

mario / marco - Klaas mentioned that he thought you were planning a rescue attempt, but it's pretty rough down there, so you might want to talk to him first. Personally, I reckon he'd be better to abandon the Coupe for a day and spend some quality time in a country pub

jeeez i feel so utterly useless reading all this escalating trouble!!

well done to all in this brilliant forum's attempts to rescue them, i'm moved by all the care that's being expressed and offered.

Thanks for the update Nigel...
I will give him a call and see what he would like to do... Ideally if Marco can borrow the work hilux we can at least rescue the car rather than leave it on the side of the road.

Great job everybody

whoever goes, make sure you take plenty of drinks, warm clothes, gloves etc etc - in case you get stuck too. ideal time to use the club thermos

Glad he is going to be safe and sound with family in tact.

Mario, if you want to talk to KJ and see what you think...

im still 100% content on going.

I gotta to agree with Nigel guys, and as I said to Marco, those roads will be really REALLY rough, I am only 10 miles and can't get anywhere near KJ....

For the price of a car, I wouldn't bother, the risks are too high.

Look at what I said to my wife yesterday, before she crashed, I said why not take the train, rather 4 train changes than a crash, and look where she ended up, she crashed and that was in this general area..

Not worth the risk, not now KJ and family are safe.

Great work Nigel

normaly in this type of situation there is no time for jokes.

but i had to..

Marco/Mario DONT try to get there,as you wont boys.I know that area and you wont stand a chance in the snow.
Glad they are well and safe. Well done to you guys.

Unless Klaas is determined to try to keep moving, I think it is dangerous to send more people out to try and help - you could easily end up as casualties yourselves

Although you may possess the vehicle and the driving skills, I have a feeling that the entire area will be gridlocked - a 4x4 is still useless if there's a 38-tonne truck parked across the road

PLEASE be sensible - people die in snow-bound cars and I know that Klaas would not want anyone to put themselves in danger now that they themselves are safe. If they were still stuck without help, it would be a different story and I would be one of the first to get out there and try. However, the initial panic is over, so please - no knee-jerk heroics

Mario, please give KJ a call and see whats going on and what he wants us to do..

looking at what Nigel said and JimO...
they are safe and sound..

but im still willing to go, im not bothered any which way as long as the family is safe.

great work Nigel!!

A fantastic result and well done to everyone who showed concern and expressed a desire to help.

Well done Nigel, good job everyone

Glad to hear the family are all safe and well. Must be like another climate zone in the SE, down here in the SW it's fine.

Good work everyone

NEWS IN

Pete is at the car now!!!

Wow, just picked up this thread... thrilling stuff. Good going guys, bet KJ will remember this trip for some time, it's great that they are all safe.

Hope his Coop will be ok, the Coop is so low and without a roof ariel that a snow plough may not notice it and bowl it over. I would try and ensure the authorities know the exact location of the abandoned vehicle.

Good job Nigel.

If you are going to get stranded, get stranded in a pub!

PETE you legend!

I have just spoke to Klass.Baby is warm and asleep!They are in the pub and a guy with a 4x4 will take him shoping for food etc. Alls good. He reckons he may be there for 3 days.
