Sounds like a dead battery. The clicking is probably the starter solenoid trying to connect the battery to the starter. One cell can short out in a battery without any notice. Then you've only got 10 volts which is not enough for the starter. If you have a volt meter check the battery voltage. It should be 12 volts.

sounds like a bad batt,also using a volt meter to check it is point less even if it has 12 volts if it has no cca or way below what it should have it wont start either
