SO not sure what last night was about? Bloody cossies
Dave..... It will have been an air bubble trapped in the master cylinder assembly.. You have to bleed front and rear even if you have only had the fronts off,as the accumulator will circulate any trapped air as it is pumping up to it`s operating pressure of 28 Bar

What has probably happened overnight is that the air bubble has worked it`s way up into the fluid reservoir and dissipated.

Give the whole system another bleed just to make sure all is ok
