Sounds pretty even to me. There you go. Your hobbies are not taking up too much space.
Didn't realise you was into theatre
I'm.more Shakespeare
But always liked Allo' Allo classic comedy

Sounds to me like your wife takes up too much useable space that could be used for bushy stuff.
I will leave it to you to tell her, on the grounds that I'm a coward.

Nah - she is worth it for the cooking and cleaning...
It is a good thing she never looks at this site!
I used to keep stuff everywhere in the house. Girlfriend moved in and my clutter got relegated to two boxes and floor space in a cupboard. Now the bairn has his stuff where mine used to be. Took about 6 estate car bootfuls. To the tip and a few sneaky ones to my parents 2 miles away. Even my clothes are limited to 2 drawers and less than half a wardrobe. If I hadn't put up hooks in the porch my outdoor jackets, fleeces, softshells, down/synth layers and waterproofs would have been decimated!
So basically I say to you John, defend your area with your life! Give in an inch and you're done for. You'll never get it back, the voice of experience!

My flat has been described by a friend as a "swirling vortex of entropy", due to the vast array of stuff that litters it. I don't think you have too much stuff (tho feel free to donate it all to me). How much space does the Wife have for her hobbies?

She has the garden for her gardening, the kitchen for her jam making and the major part of the livingroom for her knitting/ crosswords/suduco. She is allowed the use of the confuser for the accountancy bits she does for both the theatre and the church...
We've just moved, so everyone now has their own room - Including me! - although the boys are still wanting to sleep in the same room, but when they get a bit older they will want their own space. The missus has a the larger room for all her craft stuff which does take up quite alot of space, I've got a room at the other end of the house [both horizontally and vertically] I'm thinking of a hammock stand so I can snooze in peace
We both occupy space in the living room and kitchen. I occupy more space in the garden, unless I count the trees, shrubs, rotary dryer and ducks as hers, I'm wanting to get another shed to go and do manly things in without having to hoover after I've fininshed. The utility and back porch have animal food/ stuff in and most of the tools.
All in all pretty even until you look at the ammount of carp the kids have got....

See when they grow up and move out ? they don't take all their stuff with them either
A good third of our loft is full of the boys stuff. From Action Men big things like helicopters and boats, to piles of books. From sets of meccano to Robotix, it's all neatly bagged and stashed away up there. Computers, monitors....it's a snapshot of history up there

Yep I've still got stuff at my folks, and they live just outside london I moved out 15 odd year ago....
The guy that moved out from this new house left most of his [and his family's] stuff - books, accounting stuff! childrens pictures, school books. He was/ is a musician and left a full drum set, 2 kids/ play drum sets, a proper organ, 4 full size elecronic keyboards [KORG and Roland!] 1 bass, 3 electric guitars more accoustic guitars than I can count on two hands, bongos, banjoes, ukulele, didgeridoo and harmonicas. Along with most of his furniture. It took us 3 days to clear enough space to start bringing our stuff in!

When I bought my own flat, my dad turned up on the first day with all my stuff from his loft, dumped it in the middle of my new bedroom, then moaned that my flat was a mess already and I hadn't even moved my stuff in yet...
Seems like a fair portioning of space between you.
I still think the only obvious solution here is for you to donate all your bushcraft stuff to me, in the interests of marital bliss of course.
In some respects I am fortunate enough that I don't have a girlfriend currently, so don't have to worry about sharing my space. I have a housemate, but he seems relatively tolerant of when I fill the kitchen with beer bottles, or the lounge full of fermenting vessels...

Just think how much you could make by Ebaying it, and then you would have lots more space for your bushcrafting stuff.
Julia, I wish I'd been that brave when Jamie moved out I think his girlfriend would have killed me though
