Not last Christmas but the one before, when we had similar weather, I was one of the last few people to make it up the A41 heading uphill just before Chesham. A car transporter had lost traction in the outside lane, I had the sense to stay to the inside, where there's a grassy verge to drive on if necessary. The driver in the BMW in front of me was spinning his wheels and snaking about, I was idling along in second and catching up with him. It was very close, but I was not going to stop for anything, and would have bumped him if necessary. It took me about half a mile to get up to 20mph, easily losing traction in third.
Keep rolling, however slowly and keep it gentle, dropping the tyre pressures 5 - 10 psi helps to increase the contact patch helps.
