Contents:
1. Footage of a group of people paintballing – this appears to have been a staff team building activity.
2. (10:10): Footage of a social event in a bar with people [Sainsbury's staff?] playing games.
3. (17:57): Footage (very brief clip) of some people in a Sainsbury’s store.
4. (18:20): Continuation of staff party footage.
5. (22:33): Footage of event at a new (c. 1990s) Sainsbury’s store (probably a pre-opening preview evening).
6. (25:48): Footage of exterior of an old (built c. 1970s) Sainsbury’s store (in the London area?).
7. (26:20): Footage of the closing down of a Sainsbury’s branch (probably in outer west London, the closing down poster appears to refer to Tangley Park Road [Hampton] as the nearest alternative store) for the last time. Presumably the same branch as shown in 6. Includes closing the doors, the last customers at the checkout, white washing of windows.
