Light Bulb Intermittent?

A few nights ago I turned on the landing light and the bulb blew. I thought no more of it, knowing I needed to get a new bulb, but then a few hours later I went to go upstairs and the landing light was on! The next night it was working fine, but then the night after it wouldn't turn on again, but then turned itself on during the night! Should I be worried and call the council to get my electrics looked at? Thanks in advance.

The first thing to check is to see if the bulb is securely screwed into the outlet. It may be only partially set in, and so if it gets banged or bumped or jiggled, it may shut itself off because it has come loose. You could also try just replacing the bulb. If neither of these easy solutions solves your problem, you should call your maintenance person.
