Yes (25 miles west of London).

I woke up at about 3:15am, checked the time on bedside alarm clock, and
toddled off to have a pee. In mid flow, the toilet window blind was
suddenly lit up with a bright white flash, lasting for about a second.

I immediately thought it was a car using full-beam headlights, coming
along the road towards the house, and encountering one of the speed
bumps.

Normally, after the car had passed over the speed bump, there would
still be signs on the blind of its headlights lighting things up outside
(although not shining directly on the blind). However, everything now
seemed to be dark, so I thought that maybe the car had stopped, and
quickly switched off its lights.

When I had finished my pee, I immediately looked out of the landing
window at the top of the stairs (which faces straight down the road) -
but there was no sign of any car. All was in complete darkness.

Although the sky was fairly cloudless, I did briefly wonder if there had
somehow been a distant flash of lightning, and I hadn't heard the sound
- but I then toddled back to bed, and fell asleep again.

In the morning, I was surprised to hear the news about the meteor, and
realised that the time of its sighting (appx 3:16am) would have been
when I saw the flash.
