Snap, Gadget ! ;D

They had a brother Roland Henfrey Glanville Britton, born 1906/07 (edit: who may have married in London in 1931, 2 children born in 1930s - likely to be living so won't post their names here)

Valerie was Valerie Frances May Britton

maybe they were going over for Valerie's wedding if her place of intended residence was Canada ???

There is an entry for Valerie going over in 1935 as well, with her intended place of destination as Calgary for a visit to a Mr & Mrs Hunter.  Father's name is given as Frank and same Lodge Hill address.

The article doesn't say how recently they were left in the pub.   If not long ago, someone has lost them perhaps.
