@ChrisMayLA6 Hmm, I'd start looking into Asda or Tesco I think.
What about energy? Are there any good nuclear power plant operators in the UK? The danger with nuclear is that it takes a lot of time and investment before it starts to return on the investment, but I think nuclear is coming back in fashion, so maybe there would be some nice investments to be done there with a 5-9 year investment horizon. =)

all the nuclear is foreign owned as far as I can see.... but energy is pretty profitable, see Centrica for instance - but the market leader is now Octopus, but not sure if they're a good investment?
@ChrisMayLA6 Thank you very much. Centrica and Octopus are added to the list as well.

@ChrisMayLA6 Interesting exercise. Sainsburys does not convince me with its dividend history. Asda is private, although if public, could be a very interesting turn around case!
Tesco seems to be the best of the three you recommended in terms of a "boring" stock, reliable dividend payer. I think tesco would be a good, conservative buy with a 10 year horizon.
When it comes to octopus, I really like a challenge! But it is private! =( So centrica is the only one in that category,
