A standard screw in energy saver bulb has failed (not so sure about

I've abandoned the operation with the bulb still in place!

Any guidance on how I should progress please?

Thanks

Hi

Make sure the power is turned off at your distribution board, then
unscrew it with a thick rag or gardening gloves?

Put a plastic food bag over it first so you don't drop anymore bits of glass
on the floor.. it can be a b****r to clean up.
