The key point is this - your mother would have been a British Subject and Citizen of the UK and Colonies at birth but has she lost it? She probably did on the independence of Aden in 1967. The status of Citizen of the UK and Colonies was abolished in 1983 with the new law that you know about and now, a British citizen can only be one who was born in the UK or who has a mother or father born in the UK. Sorry but I don't think you are one. Another point - before 1983, only a British father married to the mother could pass on CUKC status. Mothers didn't count.
