    Cool present perfect

    Hello there!


    Is this correct? : "This is what I did with my colleagues the last two years". (The period of time I'm talking about is finished).

    Thanks a lot.

    I would say "...for the last two years."

    I believe you could also use the words over or during or each of, depending on your meaning.
