  Ra8+ KxR
  Qa1+ Kg8
  Nc6+ ?xN
  Qa7+ followed by mate at a8

  Well, different, but with ugly Bishop interference at end:

  Ra8+ KxR
  Qa1+ Kg8
  Qa7+ KxQ
  Nc6++ K-a8 or a6
  Ra1+ Ba2
  RxB+ Ba3
  RxB++

  Thanks for posting these little gems… great wakeup puzzles (well, wakeup for those in Eastern Canada/US Time zone! – it would detract from an afternoon nap in France I suppose)

  I liked the mate, even though I missed Nc6.
