A pair of Wetherspoon superfans who’ve visited 323 of the famous pubs are planning to spend their ruby wedding anniversary adding three more to their tally.

Phil, 74, and Julie Fox, 71, set out to sample just 100 of boozers but have notched more that triple that figure after travelling the length and breadth of Britain in search of pints.

The furthest the couple from Brighouse, West Yorks., have gone to quench their thirst during their 18-year “hobby” is a pub in St. Ives, Cornwall - nearly 400 miles away.

But despite their ambitious attempt to bag as many pubs as possible, they don't believe they’ll visit all of Wetherspoon's 861 establishments in their lifetime.

Grandfather-of-five Phil originally came up with the idea while drinking in his local alehouse and said it has been a great way to “see other parts of England.”

And next month, when he and Julie celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary, they plan to visit three recently opened Wetherspoon pubs in towns across West Yorkshire.
