Truly remarkable! Thanks for posting Graham.
There are so many spectacular moves here I would have a hard time deciding which was the most unexpected :)

Cheers,
Peter

OMG... this looks like it is 19th century Adolf Anderssen playing. Black doesn't even get the chance to develop the queen side while white mates him, sacrificing half his material in the way to doing so.
