Clan Lugus is sailing strong. Amongst some of our more recent highlights, jeff_lindqvist returned from a week of immersion in Irish at Oideas Gael in Donegal last month, sharing this inspiring adventure on his log, both tarvos and vermillion have completed a whole Assimil coursebook in Breton, and other members are toying with the notion of adding further Celtic languages to their study list. Community spirit in Clan Lugus continues to be lively and supportive thoughout, and everyone has pulled together really well to head out on this voyage and stay on course in 2013 as the TAC's first ever Celtic team.
Out of the 14 current original members in our crew, 9 (i.e. well over half) have posted an update here on the Forum for our Celtic language(s) over the last month (good on you, lads and lasses!):
Josquin (Scottish Gaelic, Irish)
galaxyrocker (Irish, Scottish Gaelic)
vermillon (Breton)
jeff_lindqvist (Irish)
liammcg (Scottish Gaelic, Irish, Welsh)
DaraghM (Irish, Scottish Gaelic)
tarvos (Breton)
Iversen (Irish)
Teango (Irish)
(and we're still waiting to hear back from any estranged sailors who may have got lost at sea along the way) ;)
And a special "go raibh maith agaibh" (Irish: thank you) goes out to our 2 associate members (Khublei and Iversen, aka our honorary "Godmother" and "Uncle" for the TAC) who actively look over us and act as guiding lights, especially Iversen lately, who has offered lots of insight into Irish grammar and been making steady courageous headway through Harry O'Potter.
Slàinte mhòr agus a h-uile beannachd duibh! (Scottish Gaelic: Great health and every good blessing to you all!)

@ Sunja: Nice idea, thanks. I think this was a good initiative on your part.
I'm also still around (Romulan, Schnitzel and Alef). My last log entry is less than a month old, which is not too bad for this time of the year, if you check the "competition".
To be honest, I haven't been following the team threads closely. The entries are few and far between (the ones pertaining to my teams, at least).

@Sunja: Thanks a lot for the recap! It reminded me that it wouldn't be a bad idea to update my log every now and then, especially since I'm still studying all my target languages pretty much everyday (German, French and Swedish very frequently, Spanish slightly less).

I join those thanking Sunja for the recap.
Just to confirm, I am still on Team Sparta. I do not update my log very often, but will try to make a strong finish over the next three-four months. Unfortunately Team Sparta as such has not been very active.
I am also still in with Russian on an individual basis.
