Jen R: Lots of good questions, Joj! I'm most interested in this 
part, myself. Not too long ago I was pondering the protection at 
Privet Drive, and think there will definitely be a major breach in 
security this summer. Every summer up until now somebody in the 
magical community has made it either into or near Privet drive, and 
things took a decidedly sinister turn with the Dementors.
Next step--invasion of Evil(not LV obviously) into the home. 

The Dursley's will have to rely on Harry for help and protection, as 
Dudley did last summer, and I think Petunia at least will be 
grudgingly thankful for the help (since Vernon will prove hopeless 
in that situation <g>). I doubt there's going to be great 
expressions of love, though, and I don't think Petunia will tell her 
secrets yet (JKR has said Book 7 will be the time we find out 
something really important about Lily and I suspect it will come via 
Petunia). 

It should prove to be a Bangy summer on Privet Drive!
