  I thought I found the right page to change the settings back to the non hosted site (the page was Domain Management) but as yet, my hosted version of my website is still live.

  Is there a time delay for the change to happen, or did I miss something else I was supposed to do?

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

  Did you buy the domain mapping upgrade for your WordPress.com blog? It won’t work till you do.

  It goes to a WordPress.com blog for me. Remember it can take up to 72 hours for everything to settle down when you change a URL.

  I bought the domain mapping ages ago, so there’s no issue there.

  I think you may be right. It may be a 72 hour wait until my request to default back happens.
