I DO NOT F$£KING BELIEVE IT

Two hours after I booked my tickets described in previous posting, I received an email from my US bosses to advise that my project has changed, and that I will be based in California from end of October, onwards.....(no indication on duration of placement)
This will not change the dates I'm planning on being back in Australia ... but it means that I will be flying out of Los Angeles LAX (14 hour flight to Sydney) ... and means that the tickets I just booked are useless....There is no way I am flying back to London (approx 14 hour trip), and then another half way around the world.... it makes no sense.
I dont think I can cancel the tickets, so it only leaves the option of using them for another date! ... another headache ... especially if I cant get time off.

It just goes to show ... that even when you try to plan everything, some things just blind side you ..... and you feel helpless against situations beyond your control.
