it's also running on the normal 6667 ports on irc.drlnet.co.uk

The reason it's on 8080 is for those on University or work filters that block port 6667. Less chance that they will block port 8080.

Can you run IRC on port 21 because FTP works fine from here.

I can't do anything about it if the ports blocked.

I normally get on after I go to the pub but generally think that there will be no one in there, its better with more, 'cos with two or three you just run out of stuff to say.
