I've yet to see any official sunshine totals for January in the UK, but

One interesting snippet was the sunshine total for Cork airport. It was
an
amazing 117 hours. I've known quite a few summer months up here with less
than that.

Already noted in my Synoptic Overview, Mike :-)
Highest in the UK was Culdrose (Cornwall) with 106.5h which is a
new station record (opened in 1961).
