Hello!

It's no bother really, more of an annoyance.
Getting all that light full-on in the face in the mornings makes me feel
lika vampire, "bright lights, bright lights, aaargh!"

Anyway, these are my coordinates. Not where I actually live but close
enough.

59.8551, 17.6343

Am I understanding you correctly that maybe I should try using 

59, 17 

instead?
