Default Help! Horrible watery sound coming from dash area!

I wonder if someone can shed some light on a funny watery noise I keep getting.
Every time my scooby (02 wrx wagon, in case that matters?!) is pointed downhill I can hear a trickly watery sound coming from the passenger side / dash area. Have checked all around the front and can't see any blocked bits or wet patches under the floor mats (because I thought it was trapped rainwater, right?). Am now getting worried , so any advice would be much appreciated.

Does it sound like a waterfall behind the glove box......often gets louder when you dab the accellerator ?
