I just don't take this chapter too seriously....it seems rather a lighthearted example of how icky (and in denial about wizardry) the Dursleys are......and how important Harry is.
Has anybody heard from Radagast the Brown of late? I hope his is ok.....

Hey Dude! Glad you are ok.....I came because of your PM....but I'm afraid I wouldn't be in the mood for HP chit chat if I were in your place either. I'm thinking of you though, and hope for better days......

Well, he thought that Harry already knew that he was a wizard and about Hogwarts. He probably was just dropping in to give Harry a nice birthday surprise, and to see why he hadn't gotten his letter.

true. also, it was obvious that harry would need an escort around diagon alley. but here's a point! if it was expected that harry already knew, which is true because hagrid is surprised that he hadn't gotten the letter, than why did hagrid have yet another letter on his person, which he gave to harry?

No, he knew Harry hadn't gotten his letter, but he thought Harry knew all about Hogwarts.
