Always Room for Christmas Pud




If you’ve ever over-indulged on Christmas Day, this witty and nostalgic book is for you.

Christmas dinner was done, ’twas one of the greats!
Where once was a banquet just lay empty plates.
The prawns and bean salad and ham were so yummy,
Now all that remained were the guests with full tummies...

Is there such a thing as being TOO FULL for Christmas pud? A poetic yarn that has become the stuff of festive legend, this special anniversary edition of Aunty Donna’s modern classic, Always Room for Christmas Pud, will allow you to have your pud and eat it too.

Illustrated by James Fosdike.

In 2020, they released their Netflix series Aunty Donna’s Big Ol’ House of Fun to rave reviews. Their energetic live shows have seen them sell out theatres all around the world, and they’ve created hit web series such as 1999 and Glennridge Secondary College.

In 2018, they released and toured a musical comedy album called The Album, and they’re now nearing 500 episodes of The Aunty Donna Podcast. In 2022, they released their debut book, Always Room for Christmas Pud, inspired by a cult-favourite sketch that’s been viewed over five million times.

James Fosdike

James Fosdike was discovered by Wil Anderson on a dark and stormy night, in a basket at his front door. Never one to turn away those less fortunate, Wil took James under his wing (he’s secretly a bird) and enrolled James in the Sir Douglas Mawson Institute of TAFE, specifically a Certificate IV course in Advertising and Graphic Design. Unfortunately James became lost in the off-campus TAFE lifestyle and failed to complete the course.
