It was Winter Ineluctability on Saturday 26th January 2008 with the Fabulous Shirtlifters entertaining a packed house at the Pinder Hall. This time they had a surprise artiste in the shape of Rolf Harris, Rolf had been practising with the group and thoroughly enjoyed himself. |

| Rolf said that he thought the gig was absolutely wonderful and was amazed at the applause. He told a Burns night joke which brought the house down. He was worried about his voice not surviving the evening but it did and everyone thoroughly enjoyed having Rolf with a trad jazz band. | ||||

|||
| The Hall was crowded as never before - seats were at a premium! The Fabulous Shirtlifters gave away £2,000 of which half went to Elizabeth House. John Brooks who had come back to Cookham for the gig dressed up as Sophie Tucker and a beautiful Sophie he was. | ||||
