Quick update:

I have decided Christmas is a bad time to get rid of the dummies due to visits to family, etc, so I have bit the bullet and removed the dummies tonight, telling them the fairies will take them away and leave a present.

We spent the whole day looking at fairy books, etc, and talking about saying "bye bye dummy". They were quite happy and looking forward to it.....until bedtime when my girltwin changed her mind and it has taken me hours so settle her. Boytwin is not fussed but I think it will be a hard few nights with my little miss.

Aw well, almost bedtime for me. Wish me luck people
