The focus of this article is the author's end-of-career term as South African ambassador to Australia (1988–92) and, especially, the official visits he paid New Zealand during that time. Not only does the article show what one foreign service officer did in a given historical context, thereby helping address the age-old question of what it is exactly that diplomats do, but it reveals that public perceptions of diplomats and diplomacy can differ markedly from the private reality
