Trickz of da trade, aight!
Yes you have kids, and they are naturally a mahoosive part of your life... but they are not you, nor do they define who you are. You had a personality before you had children, right? Just because you don't mention you have 3 kids off the bat is not some kind of betrayal... I know a few single fathers who leave the kids out of the equation until after the initial couple of dates, in order to get a feel for the person. After that the kids are mentioned, and either the woman is cool with it, or she doesn't want to know.
There is no harm giving yourself a good start off the blocks.
Yeah i know what you mean but it just doesn't sit right with me not to mention them. Plus if i went out with a woman a few times before she told me she has kids it would put me off so I'd be a bit of a hypocrite if i did the same thing.
If I was in this position I would use the "prefer not to say" option for kids as mentioned. That's no betrayal, and anyone that bothered would ask!
IF you do get someone chatting and kids doesn't come up. Just drop it into a message like you're going to do XYZ with such a kid, or go tuck them in or whatever (assuming they aren't in their twenties... although I miss getting tucked in ;()
Easier and more casual than throwing it in someone's face or worse, not telling them at all
I suppose the main question is, how long have you been on the site? You do right to be proud of your kids and anyone coming into your life should respect that and expect that... but this is window shopping at it's finest, you need to fluff it up a little bit

Tower Hill gateway (DLR station) has plenty of decent bars near
Abbey bar just north of the station is decent

I've had a reply from an attractive redhead, a little older than me. Let's see how this goes!

I love me a red. 
Just a heads up, Quidco doing £3 cashback for filling out the free personality test at match affinity
Do quidco still charge the £5 fee a year?
Yep.
Is she for real?
Expensive, and thats before you date her! In this case I'd rather put the £100 towards a new gfx card

Ahaha, I WISH she was close to me. I'd send her a packet of space invaders.
And a chomp.
Maybe.

"She's" from Dronfield - obviously a bloke who has got a pic from Google and is expecting to rake in the cash
