Softus hope you dont mind me adding another bus puzzle to this thread.
It's been done here before but long enough ago hopefully to intrigue a few of the newcomers.
It goes like this...
A bus leaves the depot empty bar the driver who doesn't count in this puzzle
At the first stop 5 people get on
the next stop 7 people get on and 2 get off
next stop 4 people get on and 1 gets off
next stop 6 get on and 0 get off
next stop 3 get off and 2 get on
final stop 10 get off
the bus pulls into the depot but there is not a single person onboard.
those that know the answer please hold back for others to reply.

No objection. The more, the merrier.
I haven't seen this one before, and I don't know the answer, but I have an answer. Can I post that one?
well no one else has so why not.

There is another answer!!!
There is a difference of 8 between the "get-ons" and the "get offs".
If you add up "6 get on" and "2 get on", this equals 8 too.
They are not necessarily people, so you could have (for arguments sake) 8 dogs getting on.
Thus, there would be "not a single person on board" when the bus reaches the depot.
Ta-dah!

Ah but would the dogs be accompanied by Boys as the Cats were accompanied by Girls in the previous puzzle
