I may well have been Mike.

Some meteors do move slower than others or appear to move slower than others depending on their angle of entry, ie one entering the atmoshpere at a steep angle (coming close to straight down) and viewed from "underneath" it may appear to move slower than one entering at a slight angle (moving from horizon to horizon) viewed from the side.

Shame you didn't get it on camera
