A fella I know in the UK died after leaning against the upstairs wall of his timber frame house. Fell to his death. Terrible story. Left behind 15 children. His last words were ‘I shoulda build a real house’.

Fair play to you for keeping in touch with him after his death.
They’d not allow it “over “
That’s the way it’s gone these days, with the social media.
You think the house was haunted too? Jaysus.
Why so?
Don’t mind them apes. Most houses are timber frame now. They are generally warmer than concrete and won’t have any sound issues if properly constructed.

Again,most houses in the western world are timber frame,and not a big bad wolf anywhere to blow them down.
@myblueboy is fuming that I have the means to buy a two storey timber frame house with a few acres of land instead of living in a rented bedsit over a Chinese restaurant in a provincial town like him.

You’d want to really be stuck for a few Bob to build a timber frame in this day and age. Real Peasant stuff.
