If you have a conscience do what I do. Never lie.

Tell the boss you have to go and see the doctor. Thats the honest truth isn't it? Just don't tell him its the Fremantle Doctor you are going to see.

Lying is not good, I agree.
Tell him straight out that you must attend a "board meeting" in the afternoon.

I agree, honesty is the best policy.

Inform your boss of the advantages of happy, healthy, active employees and that by allowing you recreational time to pursue your interests, your subsequent work will most likely reap the benefits. Quote some psychological research and mention stress to further back up your point and shazam, one afternoon off windsurfing, maybe even two!!

If this doesn't work... bribery, extortion, begging.. the possibilities are endless

Oh Spotty 1

I'm heading up that way, but for the Cervantes fun speed day which is on the same day.

Still haven't got my strength back for wave sailing as yet

Ah the price of popularity
