Thought they were council owned?

There may also be a thread on here with more info if you search. I think I remember them being discussed a while back.

An incredibly simple Google search showed this Continental-style advertising pillars installed in Aberdeen
which mentions said company.

If you need a credible source, and not someone on a web forum, maybe asking on a...web forum wasn't the best of ideas?

eh ive found that web page days ago but searching for the company and man in mention brought me no results. it didnt appear to be the same company as you gave me the link for. it only mentions councils in england

im asking on here cause as i said i dont live in Aberdeen so cant get to one to find the number thats on the side.


i wasnt asking if anyone knew how much it was, im askign if anyone knows the company number or address so i can get a reliable source.

why are so many people on this thing so hostile these days?
