“I’m still upset and I think I’ll be afraid for a long time. I think this is one of those things that are not easily forgotten, one of those things that makes you realise how much love and life is worth.

“Knowing that you have your children at home and thinking they can touch them or do something to them is really an emotion that is difficult to explain.

“Fortunately we are all well and it could have been a lot worse.

“They have stolen a lot of memories but it’s in the past now.”

The burglars are believed to have taken a number of valuables during their raid, mainly jewellery and designer watches, which happened around 11pm on Friday.
