@Sobeboy15 – you are entitled to the £220 cancellation compensation unless BA can claim ‘extraordinary circumstances’ although technical faults are usually, but not always, in your favour. You should be able to add the original cancelled flight into your claim, if not put it in the text box.
New 261 rights attach to your rerouting flight into case that is late or cancelled.
Re subsistence, yes you can claim for reasonable expenses but that’s not going to be a big sum, particularly mid-afternoon. There’s no fixed amount but maybe something around £15 might be reasonable to expect and they might balk at a £15 cocktail/glass of champagne.
