Why did he say it? What context?
Hello sweetie.
He'd offered as much money as he could for the items & he'd put it on the table.
It's a program where people bring thier goods to dealers and they bargain with them to get a deal done, or the people go to auction.
e2a
the cash is laid out note by note on the table.

So in this context, what does he mean by 'shot his bolt'?![]()
gone as far as he was willing to go money wise. Final offer.
Oh I say!
I'm pretty sure 'I've shot me bolt', can mean only one thing & he used it in the wrong context.

For some reason I'd not noticed the word 'not' in your post.at me, etc. Changes the way it reads.

But then with the conjuction of his 'wad' to mean spunk or money,on the table, it does sound really rude.
It was probably done on purpose.

he's a lot scruffier than that. more dog-chewed
