A sort of W&W. And a little diversion for the weekend.

Here's something a little different in the W&W category. Might last over the weekend, or maybe you knowledgeable SLers will see it off in a matter of hours.Try it without the benefit of online help at first. Some are obvious and will be well known to all, although sometimes the obvious ones are the ones that are missed.Oh yes, the question.There are quite a few national capitals contained in the street names of Leeds. I have a specific number in mind but this exercise may reveal there are actually more.So what are they? Each answer to be accompanied by detail of the location.For the lads in the premier league, extra points for any appropriate street names that have long since been consigned to Demolition City.

'Something for the weekend Sir?'..Well there's Quebec Street just off City Square, named after a village near Durham.
