Livre d'Or

*is late to the party* - I find it a lot easier to take compliments on things I *do* than things I *am*, although I also strive not to be rude or make the situation more awkward when people do compliment me - the one I hear relatively often is on my hair (I'm a natural red-head with longer than knee length hair), and I have a couple of pat replies down, starting with "just patience and lucky genetics" because that's all it is ;)
