bunny, I have stuck a few random "Private" appointments into my calendar, however my boss does not check my calendar or read any of my emails, he just assumes that I am available any time anywhere and he phones me, strangely everything he want me to do is incredibly urgent!

I obviously have some work to do to get him trained properly ;)

Sounds like you do have some work to do on him Spacie!
You'll just have him 'trained' when the contract will be up!
