Fluorescent light toubles

My kitchen fluorescent lamp which is 6 foot 100 watt unit wouldn't light tonite the starter flickered but no sign of any tube activity. It was very cold in the kitchen so I put the boiler on which warmed things up nicely I tried the tube again and although a bit sluggish it lit ( maybe my swearing at it helped) my question is do you think it's just because the tubes old and doesn't like the cold  or is there something else going on?

  • The 'twin packs' of 6ft fittings were produced mainly for commercial projects. They were single 6ft fittings sold in pairs - one lead/one lag - to correct the power factor when used in shops/factories which often had 3 phase supplies and getting the PF as near to unity could save money.
