Well chosen name, his parents where obviously viewers . Wonder what the name of his sister was ....

I wonder if the sister was called "bolt" or "screw"....... just pondering?

Nomen est omen.

Seems the Nut has Bolted....

Nut, that's narrowed it down considerably then?

Seems the Nut has Bolted....

and not the first time ,I believe a similarly named person obviously NOT this fine upstanding arsonst was arraigned for some impropriety in a laundry .

The headline in Knot the BimcuckPust said

"Nut screws washer and bolts"

Naughty Nut

So now you understand why I say people should not marry.

He's going to get a good roasting for that!

The headline got my attention, but how sad some people are, have an arguement and burn the house down.........and all the neighbours, definately a nut job done by nut named Nut. Very entertaining reading all the comments, keep em coming.

Left or right nut? I love the smell of burning rubber in the morning.

His sisters name??? ..... Maybe MEG ...... as in NUTMEG! Lol

Looks more like a LOOSE NUT

PB

I wonder how old he was, may have to call him Pea Nut.

The caption of the picture has "The fire in Khlong Toey could be seen from high rises around Bangkok", the picture shows only smoke from behind highrises. I guess I'm to assume that where there is smoke there must be fire?

Anyway this nut is lucky to have bolted as the other locals living in a wooden slum know no pity with chaps who set something afire in their midst.

Pee Nut Butter for brains.

How apt. Nut has a thread about him.

I wonder if the sister was called "bolt" or "screw"....... just pondering?

...And whether the police have any threads to trace...

I wonder how old he was, may have to call him Pea Nut.

If he has big ears, he could be Wing Nut

Despite the fact that they are basically illegal slums, I feel very sorry for the victims of this fool and his ill considered rage against his wife. Illegal they may be, and slums for sure, but nevertheless home to many who can ill afford anything else.

Yeah, and if he was shaped like a donut his name could be...err...Fred.

So now you understand why I say people should not marry.

Some people.

This is a very precise observation, but it must include "some". . . and one must discover during one's life, if one is, one

of those people or not. You are lucky if you have discovered that at an early age.

I always knew it and married late at 49, thinking that I had "matured?!"

20 years later I now know I was properly configured all along.

I am one of the "some".

Good luck to the others. They need it .

At least he didn't beat his wife to death with a blunt object

Like 'some' do

Have you heard the one about "Nut Screws washers and bolts?".........

This kind of random insanity is part and parcel of the culture and rather common. Defon 5 to Defon 1 in the blink of an eye. I put it down to the consumption of fish suace.

How apt. What a nut.

Nattawut, on the other hand, only told people to set buildings on fire.

At least this wasn't another attempt by a land developer to clear a space for a shopping mall.....
