Primary Outcome measure: Post- op pain scores as defined by VAS measure Secondary outcome measures: Length of bladder catheterisation, pain associated with defecation and post-op analgesic consumption Statistics and Power Calculations: The aim of this study is to obtain preliminary data and determine the feasibility of a future Randomised Control Trial (RCT), not to determine clinical differences. The investigators estimate 40 potential participants will be available over a 9 month period (figures obtained from RD&E Gynaecology Surgery dept. based on last year's operation lists). The investigators will invite all patients who fulfil the entry criteria to participate. This will enable us to determine a realistic recruitment rate and obtain estimates of differences in post-op pain scores to inform a full RCT. Analysis will be restricted to descriptive statistics only.
