five seconds were enough:
1. Nef6+, whatever
2. Qxh7#
1.Nef6+! (Clears the way for Queen to attack h7)

1. Nef6+ and mate on h7 follows quickly.
On another note, I found a nice combination from this position in a blitz game.
1. Nf3 d5 2. c4 dc 3. e4 g6 4. B:c4 Bg7 5. Nc3 Nd7 6. 0-0 c5 7. d4 cd 8. N:d4 Ngf6. Perhaps your readers would be amused to find it.
1. Nef6+ Qxf6 or gxf6 or Kh8
2. Qxh7#
The central knight can move to f6, giving check. White can move his king, or take the n with the pawn or Q. All three reult in mate on h7. Took me more than 5 secs but I’m cautious. I expect when I look again I will see I have blundered.
