I knew already from past experiences that if a flight gets delayed too far into the night one might run into the risk of the flight getting completely canceled. This is because if the flight gets delayed to far into the night, they are not allowed to land anymore at the target airport anymore. So decided that instead of spending my time at the airport, waiting for the final blow on my flight, i re-booked my ticket to the next day and better get back to London to get at least a bit of sleep.
