Sadly, on the very day he finished work he was killed by a nut-slide. When his body was discovered hundreds of years later he had apparently eaten himself an ante-chamber in a vain attempt to escape. The grafitti on the walls were no doubt a desperate attempt to pass the time before he died, an nut-infested mummy. The Sweet Chestnut is neither sweet, not does it grow on chests. The ancient Polynesians believed the world emerged from a nut.
Nuts are a type of fruit.
Nut is the name of an ancient Egyptian goddess. One day she apparently became the sky, married a bloke called Keb, had kids and this was the start of a whole lot of trouble. The coconut is the only fruit known to roam the sea and form new islands. The peanut is not a nut but a legume. The coconut crab is so called because it climbs tree and picks coconuts.
