I lived in stretford in my youth and once took part in it in my teens as a flower girl. it's how I met my first husband. we used to travel through the streets on massive lorries wonderful bands etc
I doubt that the Fluffy Troupe would have been able to give a dance display as the Queens' Crowning, even in the early 1970s, lasted well over two hours, leaving little time for competitions which seemed to be an intrusion as far as the pageant was concerned.
