Occurring every now and then (8)

I believe the answer is:

sporadic

(Other definitions for sporadic that I've seen before include "Occasional - intermittent" , "Random" , "Occurring here and there, scattered" , "Having separate patches" , "Occurring at irregular intervals" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
