You will have to check the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website (below) and contact the British Embassy in your area to know for certain.

You have the Internet. Contact the Consular section of the UK Embassy at: www.britain.org/ and ask them.

If your grandfather was a British Citizen you may be eligible for an Ancestry Visa. If your mother's birth in Rhodesia in 1955 was declared as a British Birth Overseas when she was born you may be eligible for British Citizenship. You also have the working holiday visa to fall back on.
