Personally, I am rooting for the freshly caught Cornish Pixies!!

I have thought a bit along these same lines.  Suppose the Dursleys have to finally admit that Harry is not the loser they always tried to make him feel he was.  Also, since JKR states that someone will do magic late, could it actually be Dudley that gets some tutoring and not Harry.  He will need to be able to defend himself.  Can you see Dudley at Hogwarts?  Talk about out of his element!!  Where would the sorting hat place him?  Also, the dementors make you relive your worst memory.  What was Dudley's?  My bet is the pig tail - but then there is the ton-tounge toffees!!
