I don't think it's the southern cross Laurie as that's fairly familiar to me. My drawing might not be accurate enough for people to guess. If not I'll just keep observing it and trying to figure it out
Part of Scorpius possibly delta scorpius plus other stars.
Get your self a planetarium program,such Stellerium which is free to download.
