My blinkers have decided to work sometimes and sometimes not...
Flasher can? Bad earth? Where would you start looking...?

Probably start with the earths, then the flasher can. Failing that check the indicator assembly in the column.
Speed and Style........... One day I'll get the speed bit.
Re: Blinkers on the blink
my ute did that not long after I got it licenced 6 years ago - replaced the flasher can and hasn't played up since
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Re: Blinkers on the blink
My FB was notorious for it. The clutch pedal return bump stop is right near the flasher can, and the "thump" of the pedal used to slowly loosen the flasher can wiring plug. I ended up giving the flasher can pins a slight bend to hold them tighter into the plug... no dramas since.
