  I have a site which I have deleted. Can I somehow retrieve it? And make a redirect to a new site?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If you or anyone else deleted a .wordpress.com blog URL then you cannot register it again and there are several warnings that clearly state that blog deletion is a permanent and irreversible act http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  You can register another .wordpress.com blog http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.
