Thomascook airlines flight delay 2009

Hi, I am new to forum. I am looking for anyone who has information regarding Thomas Cook Airlines flights from Glasgow 22nd July 2009 to Vancouver and return flight on 26th of August 2009 which was eventually cancelled till 27th August 2009,a delay of 25 hours. We arrived at Vancouver Airport 2 hours before check in on 26th august, after check in proceeded to duty free then to gate .We waited,aircraft for our flight arrived on time.We waited for some time to board,after being on aircraft approx 45 mins we were asked to leave the plane,pilot said there was a problem and they would have to check with engineers in Tolouse factory in France. We were given meal vouchers,we waited a long time then were given a sandwich and a drink,we waited some more and at 11 pm were told to leave duty free at gate secured and were taken back through customs picked up luggage and taken to Sandman Hotel in Rich mond arriving there at mid night,then being told we would be picked up at 6am next mornig 27th August. our flight eventually took off arriving Glasgow 25 hours late.We received a letter at airport explaining delay.I also had a parking charge as my car had been dropped at Glasgow airport on 26th August. The problem I have is I do not have flight numbers,booking reference,boarding passes,or seat numbers. I asked my travel agent Canadian affair for this information, who said they would pass it on to Thomas Cook Airlines,which I do not think they would give to me,living in hope. I would be gratefull if anyone can be of assistance regarding this flight or any advice.
