To be gobsmacked means to be flabbergasted, astonished, or extremely surprised, often to the point of being speechless.
Attending (as a member of the public both the Finance & Policy and Planning meeting last night @ Whittlesey Town Council, I approached one of my fellow ward councillors to ask for help and assistance in dealing with issues from members of the public and electorate.
Somewhat ‘surprised’ that after nearly 3 years as a Town Councillor, they still can not or know how to report simple things like ‘Potholes’ for instance, ot more challenging issues…. why be a councillor then?…. (Political)
