  I used to have a blog gillianprew.wordpress.com which I deleted. I would like to have it back but I am being told that the domain name already exists. Why is this?
  Blog url: http://gillianprewdotcom.wordpress.com/

  I’m sorry, but deleted blogs cannot be restored or reused. Deleting a blog is permanent and the name cannot be used again. There are several warnings about this on the Tools -> Delete Site page and in the help pages, and you are required to confirm the deletion by email.
