Look at these sentences
1)It's been ages since we heard from Dave
2) It's ages since we spoke
I know these sentences are correct. So I can deduct that we use the expression "It's been ages since we" or "It's ages since we" we always use the past simple, isn't it?

It's ages isn't really a metaphor and not proper english.

Thank you 😀
So for question number 23 as you can see we should use the past simple, isn't it?

In proper English, "have heard" is correct but I would use both. 'We have' would be conjugated to "we've".
