Mate in 5 (found in a 1 minute game - see move list for full game).

There's a mate in 3 - but this was quite cool (as my opponent didn't see until the 4th move in the sequence - he thought it was pointless time-wasting - there was a 20 second pause when he realised he wasn't miles ahead)

Right. The second rook didn't need to be sacrificed, but seeing reactions after mate sacrifices is priceless.
