PS It’s anusing in that when I bought this house (a fair sized 3 bed terrace with two living rooms and a cellar) after living in flats all my adult life I feared it would never be anything more than mostly empty and unused. It is now absolutely full! All of it.
We got a huge dose of liberation when we moved from Seattle to Sevilla a few years ago. We sold the house (in a bubble) and almost everything in it and took 3 giant duffel bags on the plane. It is 10x as much effort to get rid of something as it is to buy it in the first place (especially these days with Amazon, etc.). It's a huge burden if you let it get out of control.I used to have loads of ‘spare’ kit. Now, anything that isn’t being used is moved on. Liberating.
I'll likely pack it up tomorrow.IMHO unused kit is best boxed up and stored at domestic room temperature.
