Boots 5 days early - positive or invalid?

This is my second test today on the Boots 5 days early tests and on both I see a line straight away but it doesn’t look like it’s in the right place? Has anybody else had this issue with these tests? I don’t know whether to consider it positive or just invalid, but this photo was taken within the first 30-60 seconds of taking this evening. Never been so confused in my life 😅

You’ve got a lot of pink banding there tracking across the white test strip so I wouldn’t read that as positive I’m afraid, did you take a picture of the test at the time it says to read the test by?

I thought this. Twice in two days with different boxes is really bad though! I took this within 60 seconds maybe of it coming up as I saw the line immediately but was confused as to why it’s not where it’s supposed to be 😆 Is this a common occurrence with this brand? Last time I was TTC I used First Response so this all feels new all over again!
