"We'd put all our belongings into that motorhome an hour before, which were two handbags and another bag full of gold, my wife's engagement ring, a diamond ring, her mum's gold, gold tags, St Christopher, all the gold we'd collected through all our lives.
South Yorkshire Police said: "We were called to reports of a burglary on 20 October at 1.24am. He said the inside of their bungalow is ruined."Officers have completed CCTV enquiries in the area and enquiries are ongoing."
