I spent a couple of months in Harare in 1985. Even then, the Rhodesians were reading the handwriting on the wall and were making plans to liquidate their assets there and getting out while they were able. Apparently Cathy Buckle didn't and is now paying the price.

When we were there, the Rhodies asked us to bring in Krugerrands from Johannesburg which they would buy with their Z$ from people who were coming there on TDY. Krugerrands even then were significantly more valuable than the Z$.
