It was opposite pat-a-cake before M&S got built.

I rem the shop/boutique, knew some of the people involved but don't know it was a Looneys !!!             

Didn't last too long.   Was the .....Parrot cafe above it????

Some problem with building safety?

I don’t think it’s going to crash Google or be a scandalous whisper- which Looneys ? Peel, Ramsey, or the Douglas one that used to sell Farah trousers?

It was the guy who ran Peel Looney’s had the Duke Street one. I think that by then Peel & Ramsey Looney’s had gone their separate ways.

He was a great drinking buddy of Jerry Carter.

Farah used to be Peter Luis, then Garrey Corneil. Naff golfing clobber.

Looneys in Douglas did Farah trousers and a whole lot of 80s casual gear - Kappa tracksuits, Adidas tops, Deer Hunter trousers- an absolute forgotten Gem of a shop
