And she was fighting the clock.  I think that's why she's said not
to expect the next book until next year... She wants to do a
meticulous, boo-boo-free job this time.

This is my favorite means so far by which Harry escapes the
Dursleys.  The only thing I think that could top it is if Mad-Eye
shows up at Privet Drive at the start of Book 5!

This is also one reason why I think John Alderton (if he's still
acting) should play Arthur, even if his wife Pauline Collins
won't be Molly.  I can just hear him saying, "My wife thinks
I'm mad, but there you are."
