Sorry to hear(read) this, it's definitely one of the worst feelings to lose a pet and I wish you the best in getting through it. Came a bit late to offer help it seems but I'm beyond proud to see how much support was available. Hope everyone here gets a little boost of faith in humanity and as others have said, add me to the list of backup options.

I won't speak on the legality being that I have no experience or knowledge there, some snowblowers can definitely work on cobble stone when properly set up with skids adjusted but don't expect the cheapest electric model to cope well and anticipate extra maintenance. I'd be extra careful operating on any hill, make sure you have a good place to blow it without cars, houses, or people getting peppered with the debris they will inevitably pick up in the snow, and I don't see why it would be a problem though. Make sure to educate yourself by reading the manual thoroughly and make an informed purchase if you're going to try.

Yes it was the inanimate object that made that person a piece of shit, not the binge drinking or them being a piece of shit to begin with.
