Quicker. Adv as well as adj. Not in my book, nor in traditional English grammar. You might use it as an adverb, and lots of other words in a way I wouldn't. It doesn't make you right. No, but it doesn't make quicker (adv) wrong either, which is what you seemed to imply from your 'correction'. 'Traditional' English grammar is not cast in stone, which is why many dictionaries now list quicker as an alternative to more quickly - try Mr Google. Even the OED concedes it as informal usage.

Repayment (for extension) cash is in the way from Dubai (via carrier haddock!) (Source, SS update 29 April - PBL058 will be fully paid imminently ...) The haddock may have arrived. SS have got their fingers crossed. Tomorrow to pay off 58?  ?, then launch Arboretum and extend 35

Big question now, do we gamble and take it off the secondary market and recoup interest (4 figure sum for the past 18 days in my case) knowing it will sell a lot "quicklyer"  once it goes in to positive days? |

You can use words anyway you like, anywhere you like (subject to your employers accepting the sub-standard). Slang, colloquial, informal, it's up to you. But don't claim it's correct English. Some of us still know the difference between right and wrong, and it is not pedantry to point out the difference when someone asks. Grrrrr

They'll have to keep more than their fingers crossed when funds are expected from operators in Dubai. If you haven't looked at the series of unfulfilled predictions by SS it is worth a look at the updates tab. You'll realise why SS now has the reputation it does for useless (and often well out of date) updates.

I print out the list of updates and file it under "Fiction". If we were investing in a bank or building society and received this sort of nonsense we would probably take out our money and close our account - it must be the lure of 12% which makes us stick with such an unprofessional and slapdash outfit!

Very true, but some of us are reducing or have reduced our exposure substantially.

Updates for 77-80 are the most concerning. Claims that the land has been re-zoned (potential value over £75M) remain unsubstantiated. Even if the loans repay, I want to know if the these updates are true or not. Why concerning? The loans are secured against the land, which was valued purely as farmland with no "hope" value whatsoever. Unless arable land prices have plummeted (which I don't think they have) then the security should be as good as the day you invested. Any potential for future development gain (however distant) would be icing on the cake.
