Hey, Che :smiley:

Why don’t we start with your telling us what verb you think should be used to complete each sentence. After that, we can work on the had/get formations. :wink:

By the way, rather than saying “thanks beforehand.” you should say “Thanks in advance.”

You’re welcome (in advance ;)).
