Hi. don't know if I'm posting in right topic here but not really sure what this comes under! DH has always had a dream of buying a wood. We don't have loads of spare cash (or any really!). Anyway, he has been trying to talk FIL into buying woods that he sees as he has more cash than us and quite likes the idea too. This morning FIL rang and said had seen a wood (24 acres) and would put 2 thirds of money up if we put up money for remaining third. DH reckons he's due a pay rise soon and could borrow the money (20K!) and pay it off with his rise. I'm not keen as his argument of going camping there with kids and getting loads of use out of it seems unrealistic to me. He also reckons its a great investment and we can't lose. If it is, then i would be a bit more open to the idea..Does anyone know anything about thist type of thing? how much maintenance do woodlands take? Is it time consuming etc etc. I'm fed up of being a kill joy every time DH mentions it (has been going on for years) but I can't see attraction!
