Hmm.. . .Maybe Mr.Crabbe, Mr. Goyle and Mr.  Malfoy and the rest of 
the Death Eaters came back to wreak havok and to torture some muggles 
and start with the Dursley's.  It's my favorite beginning theory due 
to the ending of GoF with the hex incident on the train.  I'm sure 
now that LV is back that the DE's will be back to their old tricks 
regardless of what laws are in effect.  

Or maybe because Lucius Malfoy seems a little wary of the Muggle 
Protection Act in CoS when he was pawning his illegal potions at 
Borgins shop they won't torture the Dursley's there.  Or maybe they 
can't because of Harry's ancient protection. Or maybe Voldemort has a 
different plan. So instead they'll kidnap the adult Dursleys, take 
them back to wherever LV and the DE's clubhouse is to torture and 
have fun with them there.  And it effectively removes Harry's 
protection.  That's why Harry is unconcious in the flowerbed.  Harry 
now has no protection.  He's stuck with Dudley and has to find a 
place to go.  Dumbledore in his "all-knowing " or "spying" ways finds 
out and brings both of them to Hogwarts,  the other place Harry is 
proteced.  

That is my theory (this week)of why Harry is lying in a flowerbed and 
how OotP might begin.   There was that hint about a person starting 
Hogwarts at an older age.  At first I thought Hagrid but he's now on 
the giant journey with Madame Maxime.  And Dudley might get too fat 
for the pants available at his school and robes and be made for very, 
very obese people!  What do you think about the kidnap idea (not the 
idea that obese people fit in robes;-)?
