I have finally managed to get the forums back up and working again. You can visit them here

I am not sure how much longer I will be able to run them for because our current forum software Ikonboard is putting more and more load on the server. I am looking into getting a license for VBulletin but at the moment I just can’t afford it. If anyone is willing to provide us with a copy of Vbulletin in return for some advertising space please feel free to email me @ ronan@ppczone.net
