Now is May 06.
Joe told me the meeting will be in June 06.
Or
Joe told me the meeting was in June 06.
And
I thought you have a thoughtful sister. (the person still has the sister)
or
I thought you had a thougtful sister.
Thanks a lot! |

Joe told me the meeting will be in June 06. (the other one is incorrect)
In your second set, both are acceptable. |
