Our last poll asked how you rated the World Cup in South Africa. Overwhelmingly you said the team’s performance was ‘as expected’ and it started me thinking that underachievement, in sport, weather, politics, is really on trend at the moment.

We’re making a few changes here at stalkyourself.com over the last of the summer rain but stay tuned for more survey based reflection, looking into our expectations and whether a negative, cynical or passive attitude does make a difference.

Take the stalkyourself survey during the tournament to track the effects of the World Cup on your diet and behaviour. Your stats will help us discover if the UK really is football mad. A recent survey found that only 13% of people thought England would win in South Africa! Whether you’re watching every game, or none, we need your stats.

Use that time well, for some reflection maybe, by stalking yourself!

Stalkyourself.com is a shared time capsule. Choose which areas of daily life you want to focus on; diet, money, social life or being green. Your results can stay anonymous or be shared with friends and family. Contribute to a constantly changing and fascinating insight into life in 2010 by taking the stalkyourself survey.

So what did you miss? Gillian Duffy prompted Bigotgate. Home sick, watching 24 hour news covering Gordon visiting Duffy’s home in Rochdale, I ended up watching Duffy’s front door for 45 minutes. I would know that front door anywhere now. Do you think GB handled the situation in the best way? See what PR experts think here.
The final debate was another mixed bad in terms of polls. I agreed with C4, where GB came out as the winner.

In the lead up, or countdown to the Election, stalkers are getting their 5 A DAY, but also drinking heavily. Hmmm.
