'Moving 1 column into several columns based on an empty row
I'm trying to tidy up a spreadsheet from Google Sheets, essentially I only have two columns (date and value) but 3 different sets of data (separated by an empty row). I want to be able to grab everything after (in between) each empty row and paste it to the corresponding column. For example:
1 26
2 12
3 50
(empty row)
1 23
2 21
3 25
(empty row)
1 23
2 29
3 78
And I'd want it to be like this:
1 26 1 23 1 23
2 12 2 21 2 29
3 50 3 25 3 78
I've found some functions for detecting empty rows but wasn't sure where to go from there, sorry I'm a novice at Excel/Google Sheets. Any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA!
Here is a link to my sample spreadsheet (tab 1 is the sample data, tab 2 is what I'm trying to achieve)

Solution 1:[1]
use:
=ARRAYFORMULA(SPLIT(FLATTEN(QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(SPLIT(QUERY(
REGEXREPLACE(SUBSTITUTE(FLATTEN(QUERY(TRANSPOSE({
IF(A1:A15="", "×", A1:A15), B1:B15}),,9^9)),
" ", "¤"), "¤$", ),,9^9), "×")), " "),,9^9)), " ¤"))
Solution 2:[2]
Formula:
=arrayformula(split(transpose(split(join(",", flatten(
query(transpose(split(flatten(split(regexreplace(join("×", A1:A11&","&B1:B11), "×,×", "?"), "?")), "×")),
"select Col1, Col2, Col3, '×' label '×' ''", 0))), "×")), ","))
