        Mr. James,

    It has been ages since I last (send) (1) [input answers="sent"/]  you a letter. I (feel) (2) [input answers="have been feeling"/]  quite guilty about it for some time, because I (modal verb + write) (3) [input answers="should have written"/]  to you a long time ago, but I didn't.
    Anyway, as you probably remember, I always (interest) (4) [input answers="have always been interested"/]  in hill walking ever since leaving school, in fact. Two years ago, for instance, along with a couple of friends you once (meet) (5) [input answers="met"/] , Jim and David Beckham, I (take) (6) [input answers="took"/] a plane to Crete and we (enjoy) (7) [input answers="enjoyed"/]  a wonderful fortnight (follow) (8) [input answers="following"/]  mule tracks in the mountains there.
    Then, in May of last year, all three of us (drive) (9) [input answers="drove"/]  down to the Pyrenees, where we (explore) (10) [input answers="explored"/]  a whole series of lost villages for a couple of months.
    Earlier this year we (decide) (11) [input answers="decided"/]  (go) (12) [input answers="to go"/]  (walk) (13) [input answers="walking"/]  in Haute-Provence in France.
    Everything (arrange) (14) [input answers="had been arranged"/]  and we (go + leave) (15) [input answers="were going to leave"/]  England by air on May 5th.
    Unfortunately, however, during the second week in March, Jim and David (practise) (16) [input answers="were practicing"/]  (run) (17)  [input answers="running"/]  across Dartmoor in preparation for an important competition, when David (slide) (18) [input answers="slid"/]  in some mud and (tear) (19) [input answers="tore"/] a ligament.
    Jim (run) (20) [input answers="ran"/]  off (find) (21) [input answers="to find"/]  help, but in (do) (22) [input answers="doing"/]  so, he himself (break) (23) [input answers="broke"/]  a leg. By the time the resque team (arrive) (24) [input answers="arrived"/] , both of them (suffer) (25) [input answers="had suffered"/]  badly. In the end, they (take) (26) [input answers="were taken"/]  to hospital and (spend) (27) [input answers="spent"/] the first three days on the danger list. That was nearly three weeks ago, and they just (advice) (28) [input answers="have just been advised"/]  by their doctors (not go) (29) [input answers="not to go"/]  on holiday next month which (mean) (30)  [input answers="means"/]  there are two air tickets nobody really (want) (31) [input answers="wants"/] .
        You and Ann (like) (32) [input answers="Would you and Ann like"/]  (take) (33) [input answers="to take"/]  their place? I realize this is rather short notice, but you seem to be the only people among all of my friends who rather (go) (34) [input answers="would rather go"/]  on walking holiday than (sit) (35) [input answers="sit"/]  on a beach whilst (wait) (36) [input answers="waiting"/]  for their bodies (turn) (37) [input answers="to turn"/]  scarlet!
        Anyway, if you like the idea, (write) (38) [input answers="write"/]  and (let) (39) [input answers="let"/]  me (know) (40) [input answers="know"/]  as soon as possible.

                                                                                                            All the best,
                                                                                                                Mark.
