She only spotted the nest and three unhatched eggs when visiting her son - a 15 minute drive from her home in Hertfordshire - on Sunday.

They hatched the following day and now Jan has pledged not to drive the car until the robins have flown the nest - which could take up to two weeks.

Jan said: “I can’t believe that the robins have managed this.”

“I use the car quite a lot and have driven it around the place visiting relatives and such like.

“I drove to see my mother at one point who lives about 20 minutes away.”

“It will be a bit inconvenient for me but I’m going to let them get on with it undisturbed and wait for them to leave.”
