  Hi there,

  After viewing your site I found that it is viewable at http://chelmsfordbeekeepers.com/ as seen in this screenshot:

  

  Please think of this domain as just a mailing address (not the actual content of your site). So essentially you just changed the address of your site, not the content.

  The other domain: brianspenceris.wordpress.com never deletes. Even if your readers went to brianspenceris.wordpress.com they would automatically be redirected to chelmsfordbeekeepers.com. This is actually a good thing because if you one day decide that you no longer want the domain: chelmsfordbeekeepers.com or you forget to renew it, all your content will still be available at brianspenceris.wordpress.com.

  Please view this guide on domains for more information:
