If the black king doesn't move, there's a nice checkmate with king, bishop, and pawn. If he moves, then the white king gets to the pawn before it becomes a queen, and the rest is simple.
King in 4 moves to QB4, whilst the black pawn moves to KR2. Now white moves his bishop to QN4. Black can promote the pawn, but it’s too late - moving the pawn up one is checkmate.
Nice ending - I would have considered to move the white pawn to b4, then the bishop to e1 creating a potential ability to kill the black pawn at h6, but black could of course have found a way around it.

Wonderful, could not imagine this possible.

Thank you
Very nice one
Thank you
I can't believe I worked this out without becoming completely confused. Strange how the King moving away from the pawn is not moving away.
yup
