If you want to run, you want to be like Hillary. You want to know your stuff cold." (See pictures of wildfires...
...world's great shopping districts. Its two main arteries, Regent and Oxford streets, and its capillary-like maze of side streets, are crammed with some of the biggest and trendiest names in retailing.
