B&Q dead plants - happy ending

Went into my local B&Q today and just next to the main door in the outside garden section was one of the usual trolley displays of expiring plants - except that they were much more dead than usual. In fact they looked totally unsellable. I then noticed some notices pinned on - which read something like this. "Please dont take or move any of these plants as we have a robin nesting here"
I peered in and sure enough, there was Mrs Robin on her nest peering back at me.
Full marks to B&Q Clifton Moor, York.

Our local B&Q done the same thing last year when a blackbird took up residence in some bushes they were selling, nice to see that they don't just get rid of them
