My mistakes in using tenses

• I thought I went/had gone into the wrong garden. 
• I haven't been to Siberia before. AND I have never been to Siberia. 
• Why on earth didn't you tell/haven't you told me adout that loose floorboard?(It is no longer in the present because of the next sentence) I tripped/have tripped over it just now and hurt myself. (Two actions one by one and there is a certain time)
