CORK is the most honest city in Ireland, an experiment has revealed.

A total of 100 wallets, each containing EUR20, were placed in Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway, to test the nation's moral fibre.

The finders had a choice - pocket the money, hand the wallet in to the local Garda station or call the mobile number contained on a business card.

The most honest place in the country is Cork where 86% of finders tried to get the money back to its rightful owner.

And 54% of the finders across the country called the number of the wallet's owner. A spokesman for PlayStation 3, who carried out the test, said: "While Cork came first, exactly half of those surveyed in both Galway and Limerick called the number to return the wallet.

"But Dubliners are the least honest with just 45% of finders trying to reunite the wallet with its rightful owner."

ah sure its all them boggers comin up to dublin, stealin everyones wallets, who are bringin down the percentage in dublin!!

if it was definately 100% dublin people finding the wallets then we'd be the most honest!!!

where'd ya get that article anyway? musta been the cork examiner or somewhere!!

Its called the Irish Examiner now and I got it off a random site after hearing the story on 2fm(which is based in Dub!!!!)

Lies!!!
the weekend they did the experiment musta been a weekend where Cork were playing in Croke Park and all the fans were travelling up and wrecking the place as usual!!

Cork also makes the top ten places to visit list by Lonely Planet!!
(Poor Dublin!!)

Thats only coz of the novelty factor of the accent! Its like a 24/7 musical since the accent sounds like you're singing instead of talking! plus, its where u can get cheap drugs since all the colombians land there in their boats on their way to distributing the funny stuff!!

hhhmmmm perhaps Did you hear there's gona be a load of new rules for the Hemp shops all over the place..loads will have to close!!

ye the head shops. i heard about them. i left ireland before they became big so i've totally bypassed all that shenanigans!

45% is still good. I reckon if you did that in northbridge, the percentage would be closer to 5%.

lol in Northbridge it'd be different! On a Friday night, most of the wallets would be stolen from your pocket, instead of found on the ground! And you'd be guaranteed the only reason they'd be returned is coz theres no money left in them!!

(p.s amsroks is right, Dublin is a hole!!)
