diamond on the left of a heart. There is a diamond on the right of a diamond. What

If there is a queen on the left of a queen, then the two queens are together.
Then, if there is a queen on the right of a jack, the jack must be before the two queens.
If there is a diamond on the right of a diamond, then the two diamonds are together.
Then, if there is a diamond on the left of a heart, the two diamonds must be before the heart.
You should be able to finish from there.
