Description
Fire Up Bingo! is an entrant in the Bingo Movable Cache Game 2012/13
I am a red fire truck affixed to a small screwtop container. The Chief usually dives me and we always aim to be first vehicle to the fire. Speed limits don't apply to me and I aim to flit around the bingo landscape at breakneck speed.
Feel free to find me, log me on GCA (get a smilie) and within 2 days (if possible) move me at least 1km away. Then log me as 'moved' with the new co-ordinates of the hide. That's pretty much it.
The hides should be straightforward with a simple hint. The aim is to find me easily enough without me being muggled.
And if all that fails - C'est la vie :)
Happy geocaching!

Found while out at Windsor last night. Parked nearby and walked to the hide. A quick grab then headed off to rehide then the radio came up with a storm warning in the Blue Mountains & Hawkesbury so turned around and went home. Will move on soon. Thanks for the moveable DaFiChNi Team

Doing the rounds this afternoon of the newly placed moveables in the area. Soon uncovered the hide location on our walk back and had the cache in hand soon afterwards. Signed the log and replaced as found for others to find at the event this coming weekend. If it hasn't moved on by then, will come back and grab it. TFTMC DaFiChNi.

After going to an ANZAC Day dawn service came out to the Hawkesbury where I got 5 puzzle caches the while on the way to my next target saw that this one was nearby. So stopped a bit further up the road from the bridge and walked to GZ a quick discovery and grab. Replaced with another moveable in the same hide. Thanks for the moveable DaFiChNi Team. I'll see where I drop itnext

Got the little fire truck back out. Resting comfortably under a smallish multi trunked tree. Looked a bit like a small Moreton Bay Fig tree but not sure that it was! 
Stole this one from my daughter. She got to retrieve it in the rain. I get to take it on a little journey.
Think we'll find somewhere warmer.

Apologies for the delay, back out. On the walking track, no need to go bush.
No, it wasn't to be for me. Looked as per the hint, but alas no joy for me today.
Thanks anyway...

Wow such a cute cache but not many 'safe' spots to place it.
Hopefully this one is okay.

Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.
Today we ducked into Launceston hoping that Sunday would mean less muggles around.
Decided to check out Trevallyn to see if we could ride our bicycles in this area to cache and
noticed these couple of moveables hanging out here so picked them up.
Try to move soon.

Like previous cache holder we have a few moveables, so signed log and left for next finder.
We had to poke about a bit in the sharp stuff before we located the fire station. As we were already holding far too many movables & this one kindly provided a log for signing, we treated it as a trad and left it for the next finder.
Taken for a drive to the Trevallyn Reserve area. An area where many activities take place. Fire Up Bingo is at the start of a walking track and he has several friends nearby to keep him company
What else can you do on a wet day but go caching - saw there were several moveables waiting to be found in this area that I had not visited since I was a child and lived down here. Still a beautiful area even on a rainy winters day. Thanks for bringing me back down here. Found easily thanks to accurate coordinates & hint.

Fire Up Bingo! is back out ready to play. He's hidden near the top gates at Fern Glade
Moving along the coast with his friends
Found Fir Up safely tucked away in a crevice in a rock wall as we were leaving Hobart. Will set it free in the NW.
Held onto this one for way too long. Have dropped into a more cacher friendly environment.
Found this one with a muggle sitting in his van, reading a book. I doubt he saw what I was up to and it wouldn't matter as this is a movable. Will rehide shortly
I ride past this spot a lot, but haven't bothered stopping for the cache till today.
Collected.

Fire up bingo has been sitting there a long time. Went for a drive after tea as I was feeling too hot to do much else. Took him and will move on soon.
Sue spotted a cache then found in fact there were two for the price of one. We did not have this one down searching and realised when checking the web site map that it did not show up due to it being hidden behind the "Black Beetle" mate at the same coords. With this one we signed the log and put it back in the hide TFTC DaFiChNi Team
Our ambition was greater than what we could achieve on this walk. This was partly brought about by the fact that the multicache took us on a circuit of Rosny Hill that we had already just walked. Those we didn't get can wait for another day.

Nabbed in early morning raid along the coast. TFTC..Cheers.

Brought north with me from Hobart and it's back out, ready for some fire truck action on the coast!
This was a cache that we needed desperately as the number was on all three of our cards, so five thumbs up just for the sheer joy of having finally got this one! It was a good hiding spot too, and we decided to stick around and found a couple of really nice woodland caches nearby as well. Thanks!!

Was not fulfilling its function here, so had to be moved to a more appropriate place.
Back out, sorry for the delay, sometimes life gets in the way of caching
I took a picture of this cool fire truck to show the little red tags .. they will love it 
Thanks for the find DaFiChNi
