I can't find whether that take-off and flight to the ISS was successful. Anyone know, please?

Yrs. They docked about thirty hours after blast off, as per schedule.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Many thanks - very interesting. My (older) son has been reading me Tom Peak's book about his time on the ISS and anyone who goes through all the complicated training required before the six months there deserves every kind of respect there is. His detailed description of his space walk is completely fascinating.

Thank you too, anchorman, for your reply.
