onvel is a combination of begging for time, or taking as much time as possible (grovel) when partaking in a leisurely day-to-day pursuit such as going to the shops, the resulting combination will produce an amble, but in this specific context it is called an 'onvel'. Obviously a portmanteau of the words, grovel and amble would not create the word onvel, this word naturally rolls off the tongue of people in Merseyside.
man1: do you want to go to the shops today?

woman1: yeah, i wouldnt mind but as long as you dont onvel, last time you did that we ended up with 60 pounds worth of clothes from charity shops.

A fictional capitalist created by Dr. Seuss in 1971 as the main antagonist. He is also included in the 1972 The Lorax 25 minute short-film and the 2012 The Lorax made by Illumination. The Onceler produced a product called Thneeds, using the tuffs (leaves) of truffula trees. Near the end of the story, he runs out of trees and is forced to close his business. He gives a small child the last truffula seed to birth a new forest. The Onceler portrayed in the 2012 film spawned a fandom of simps, which in turn caused the creation of tumblr sexyman. In this fandom, he was shipped with himself, and fan created oncelers. However, this fandom died after a few years.

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
