FRINGFORD pub regulars supporting staff on a diet could keep informed of every pound they lost – by counting bags of sugar.
Butcher’s Arms landlady Pat Aisthorpe, 55, and barmaid Caroline Wright, 46, set themselves a challenge to lose a stone before their holidays.
Customers sponsored them to raise money for the Darby and Joan club of Fringford and Hethe.
Every time the pair lost four pounds they put a bag of sugar behind the bar.
In total, Ms Aisthorpe lost 1st 8.5lb, and Mrs Wright 1st 13.5lb.
They raised almost £600 towards an outing and Christmas meal for the club’s members.
