I am 450 miles short to renew for gold and haven't got the time to fit another trip in before 8 Jan - unless i do an MR during the bank holidays which I am not keen to... or are these just for Destination miles and not Membership miles?

Has anyone worked out how frequently you can buy these miles (if it actually lets you buy them)?
Is it 20k per calendar year, per membership year, or per 12 month period?
In other words could I buy 20k now and 20k on the 1st of January if I wanted to?

- is the "per year" rule means before Dec 31 ?
Thanks ...
