It looks great. Bake with it and feed the remnants, or refrigerate it until you are ready to bake.
Thanks! I will try a bake over the weekend as too busy during the week.
In the meantime how should I feed the remnants? And if I put it in the fridge do take it out a few hours before baking?
This article gives you various strategies and timelines:

Thanks! I made a second one today and it bloomed/domed, but I did try some new things after reading more about sourdough. First loaf was kind of dense and didn’t look quite like the recipe albeit… boyfriend said was one of the best breads I made, quite tasty.
For this second loaf I did more stretch and folds and let it proof for longer. This loaf has more of a sour taste which is quite nice and looks more airy. I will need to practice my folding and coiling and probably invest in a Dutch oven as I think this one could’ve worked out quite well in a round shape loaf.
I was scared to score too deep but I am trying and erroring!
The crumb does indeed look more airy. Good job on the gluten development and fermentation timing!
