The URL to the Flat Hat Club is broken. Here's one that works:

Thanks for pointing it out to me. It's been fixed now.

Um, I hate to be such a spoilsport, but your claim was posted a few hours before the official start of the claiming; thus it wouldn't quite fair towards everyone else if I let you claim this prompt now, would it?

However, I'll put up a giant info post once the official claiming starts (which would be in about 15 minutes, once I've answered a few more LJ comments :D).

First of all, apologies for the overenthusiastic posting yesterday. ;) It would help me to read things before I randomly comment on them, non?

I'm fairly sure it's past midnight EST by this point, so I would like to claim this prompt if I can:

There are peculiar alien goings-on at the court of Henry VIII, but the King hasn't noticed; he's more interested in this charming young woman who's appeared from nowhere, much to Anne Boleyn's annoyance.

No apologies necessary.

The prompt is yours now!

Hello! Could I please claim this one?

* The Doctor and any companions of choice decide to tackle the mystery of the Fountain of Youth. Is the story about Juan Ponce de León's discovery just that - a story - or is there some merit to it?

[fallingtowers]

You sure can!

Please please please may I have * Wouldn't it be really, really funny if Five somehow inspired Margery Allingham's Albert Campion? Because I about died with glee when I read it. :)

Only if you say "pretty please with a cherry on top..." :)

It's all yours.
