  I would like to set up the following domain: http://www.lesliestanberryreiki.co.uk

  When I tried to set this up it said that I cannot set up the domain as ‘.co.uk’

  Does this also mean I would not be able to pay in UK pounds?

  How would I be able to set it up as a ‘.co.uk’ domain?

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

  Currently you can register the following domain extensions on WordPress.com:

  .com, .org, .net, .co and .me

  We do not yet have the ability to allow users to register co.uk domains, but it is on our radar for the near future. For now, you will need to work with a domain registrar that does allow you to register that domain, and then you can purchase domain mapping to point it to your WordPress.com site:
