Check out this photo that I (eventually) unearthed ...

 

It was doing my nut in, so it was, and my gal was going mental at me for persevering.

:D I don't think partners will ever truly understand the obsession of a good old "Where is this?" hunt.

A couple of amphibians arrived to help out.

 

That ☝️ didn't help me out, to be honest.

Well done. I'll get him for that amphibian clue. :D

 

Oh, believe me ... he'll be 'got' if I have anything to do with it! Many sleepless hours.

 

I've never seen a poser left so long without an attempt. 

 

This 👇 would've been an oblique clue. 😁

For a few of the previous ones I've had a bit of a hunch with one or two whereby I knew that I'd seen or been but was left wracking my memory before the penny dropped.

 

However, your one had me completely stumped other than it was something that had been on the telly. You'd have creased yourself laughing had you been a fly on the wall watching my dozens and dozens of, ahem, 'inspired' searches. The exasperation when reduced to perusing TV schedules was intense.  I'm guilty of watching way too much telly but simply had never seen that.

 

It's not the first time that I've been totally clueless, and it won't be the last either.

 

It never ceases to amaze me the number of times something that looks to me as being utterly obscure gets spotted by one of our posters.

 

Some of the ones I've posted I honestly thought were really tricky and had several clues lined up only for somebody to home right in.

 

Clearly, I'll have to up my game. 🤣

I've never seen that. It was still a guess from your clue.

 

Found the same image on this now though!

A further clue:-

 

Thousands of Hearts fans stroll past every other week without seeing it.

 

I'm sitting there the noo

Looking at the view

The famous sign has long since gone

As have the floodlights too.

 

The answer to my poser

Is known by quite a few

I have a photo that would give the answer

Should I post it now for you?

It is the bench on the other side of the road from the Gorgie Road entrance!

It's a house from the film Lost Boys, I think Wee Mikey got it.

Well done for stepping in and stealing a point. 👍

 

@All roads lead to Gorgie gets a bonus point.

No I don't deserve that. I thought it was in or outside the Merchi social club itself. I've sat on that bench as well and not even looked at the plaque 😄

Funnily enough, I honestly did consider going via Keflavik, so fair shout.

Thankfully not. There'll be some consternation for those looking forward to a scenic rail trip, for sure.
