Just to put an end to this - I just needed a new battery, as we all expected. The old one was nearly 8 years old. I'm the second owner of this car, but I've only had it for 5 years. I guess a couple of hours of driving two days before were not enough to keep it charged - that's what surprised me. I was told by one of the mechanics where I had it replaced that batteries last only 4 1/2 to 5 years - as one of you mentioned.
Thanks for all the comments.
