Hmmm, if there is definitely no cost at all to cancel, I could try that tonight. Problem is I don't know if I'll have enough miles for the two transactions.

Does anyone know if 6 - 10 January is Peak or Off Peak?
Also, is it possible to cancel the inbound of a reward ticket with Avios.com and get back the miles? I know I will have to pay the change fee of £35 per person if its possible.
