ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN ON POLAR TRIP

Former PM , John Howard , sails out of Sydney for the Arctic circle this morning aboard the SS Aurora at the head of a daring expedition to prove that global warming is a myth .

Wearing three sets of thermal underwear, Mr Howard told reporters he will follow the trail of tragic 19th century polar explorer Sir John Franklin, the colonial governor of Van Diemen’s Land , who perished while attempting to find the North West Passage.

Mrs Howard , wearing a fetching mink fur , is in charge of the expedition’s cute huskies - Amanda , Bronwyn , Paris, Susan, Oprah , Peter, Paul and Hairy. Mr Howard says he firmly believes the world is about to enter a new ice age and should be stocking up with napalm , anti freeze , faggots, fire wood and Aussie coal to survive. Progress reports will be posted as the expedition ventures into Titanic country .
