Your Definition
Pronounced: (Well-bow). This term is given to the moment you discover that the bar surface you are resting your elbow on whilst waiting to order drinks has not been maintained to a "dry" standard. The result is a "Wet Elbow" or "Welbow" Discovery of a "welbow" often leads to outrage and losing your place at the bar as you reel away in abject disgust. A level 1 "welbow can be dealt with by a casual rub on a friends jumper. Level 5's require time under the hand dryer to reduce the "welbow" to a more manageable level.
