In a story reported at
http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2002391624,00.html, someone (presumably
an Englishman) is quoted as saying, "The people of Alexandra would be
gobsmacked if they could see how people live in such opulence on their
doorstep."

Can anyone tell me more about the wonderful word "gobsmack"?
