In the town of Canterbury, at a grand affair,
Celebrating a milestone, joy was in the air.
Monty and Pepper, two mischievous hounds,
Were the talk of the party in the festive surrounds.

It was the 150th year of the university’s might,
A Christmas bash to remember, under the starry night.
Monty and Pepper, with a twinkle in their eyes,
Plotted together for a canine surprise.

As the guests gathered ‘neath the twinkling lights,
Monty and Pepper slipped out of sight.
They found the buffet, a feast laid so fine,
Stole treats from the table, a delicious canine crime.

Monty, the rascal, with a mischievous grin,
Decided a librarian leg was the perfect tree limb.
He lifted his leg, a festive faux pas,
The librarian startled, “Oh dear, oh my stars!”

Pepper, not one to be left behind,
Chewed on a book, a literary find.
Pages torn, scattered like snow,
The chaos of knowledge, a canine cameo.

Amidst the mayhem, a yelp of surprise,
Father Christmas stuck, chimney-wise.
Tangled in tinsel, his sleigh in a plight,
Monty and Pepper, a heroic sight.

With determination, they tugged and they pulled,
Freeing St. Nick, his laughter echoed and rolled.
Applause from the guests, cheers loud and clear,
Monty and Pepper, Christmas heroes, no fear.

As the night wound down, their antics forgiven,
Monty and Pepper, under the starry heaven.
A toast to chaos, with a touch of glee,
Christmas joy, in Canterbury, for all to see.
