Sadly both hits for "that lady bit of luck" are me quoting Yogi Hughes on the SPL thread.

"lady bit of luck" gives four results - one for you and three from Hearts messageboards laughing at him. I'm sure the word little was in there somewhere though, but "lady little bit of luck" (which is how I remember it) doesn't give me anything.

Found it! Interview link, about 35 seconds in, "bit..lady bit of luck". Still an amazing interview, btw.

bit.ly of luck*

Oops, I never put the link in, did i?
