PRIDE WAS WELL and truly alive in Dublin over the weekend. Nothing could dampen the rainbow sea that took over the city under the glorious sunshine.

But unfortunately, it didn’t get off to the best start after a man was arrested on Friday night for throwing a rock through the window of Pantibar on Capel Street.
A brick thrown through Pantibar's window just now. No one hurt. It says in Irish "FAIRIES (fags) OUT OF IRELAND"
But we are Ireland
Happy Pride everyone. It's going to be a great day tomorrow, full of Irish love and queer joy. Be thankful for it, cos some people have neither pic.twitter.com/AQe2YwXpvY

Panti tweeted the rock in question, which read ‘Píteoga amach as Eirean’, translating to ‘Fairies out of Ireland’.
Thankfully no one was hurt, and it did absolutely nothing to quash the fabulous pride celebrations in the bar.
People even started improving the message, with artist Will St Leger leading the edits.

After seeing that picture of a rock thrown through Pantibar's window last night. I thought we could have fun today by downloading this blank brick and adding our own message to it for Dublin LGBTQ #Pride#EraseTheHate#DublinPridepic.twitter.com/AKLOWpXi8W
But the best response so far? The Irish Fairy Door Company made Pantibar their very own tiny fairy door.
If you’re a parent you’ll know these things well, but basically they’re a company that make doors for fairies so your children can look after them.
We are loving our adorable (bespoke 💅💅) Pantibar fairy door. Thanks @IrishFairyDoor! Now to decide where the fairies would like to live in this bar for fairies... pic.twitter.com/JgSVKGfw95

The Irish Fairy Door Co provided Pantibar with a tiny fairy door in response to Friday's brick incident

Just adorable. Make sure they have a good view of the stage and full access to the bar, yeah?
