Here's a few nitpicky notes on the questions:

> 
> In the PS/SS, a friend of Dudley's goes with Dudley, Vernon, 
Petunia and 
> Harry to the zoo. What was his name and what was his usual 
practice? And 
> where was the snake from?

Note that this was NOT the London zoo, as someone's response seemed 
to suggest. When Harry goes to Diagon Alley with Hagrid, it is stated 
that he'd never been to London before, so he must have gone to some 
zoo nearer to home.


> 
>  What is the tavern that leads into Dragon Alley called?

That's DIAGON Alley, which is a play on words: "diagonally".


> 
>  What was the name of the wizard who bowed to Harry in the street 
before 
> Harry knew he was a wizard? 

Daedelus Diggle bowed to him in a shop, not in the street. (Aunt 
Petunia immediately hurried Harry out of the shop without buying 
anything).
