Hello Gary,
Generally, DNS(domain/nameservers) will take 48 to 72 hrs to propagate world wide.
So if the domain is not yet resolving from correct namesever, then you can check the domain status using the tools available at
http://xwhois.com or at
http://member.dnsstuff.com/pages/tools.php.

1. In my MB accounts my domain names all have the "green" light and are saying "on", including the one I registered last night ( I think - Will double check that but not from this PC as I'm at work and cant access my accounts right now ).
If it is saying it is "on" and has a green light, would that not mean that essentially it has propogated already?.

The green light means the
package for that account is active under billing . It has nothing to do with domain registration.

www.sandyshores.co.uk shows me a screen where it says the following:-
Welcome to Your New Hosting Package
This is your index.html page
Please replace this when you upload your website hosting
The files from the website hosting I was working on are currently uploaded to that Addon Domain.
www.sandyshores.com gives me an error page:-
Error: The requested url could not be retrieved. While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.sandyshores.com/
The following error was encountered:
Connection Failed
The system returned:
(101) Network is unreachableThe remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.
I would have thought since both of these domains are already Addon Domains on my hosting package that whatever files I uploaded to them, they would show up?.

The domain sandyshores.co.uk and sandyshores.com are not resolving through our server and not yet added as addon domain under your main domain. You can check the domain status using the tools available at URLs.
I can see a domain sandy-shores.co.uk added as a addon domain and its resolving and working fine from our server.

The third puzzler I have is that I've noticed in a lot of my Addon Domains within their public_html folders, there is an htaccess file in each of the domains folders which I cant say I ever noticed before?. Were they always there?.

Its not compulsory that .htaccess should exists under all those addon domain folder until and unless you have frontpage enabled or installed on those domains.

Lastly, normally when I upload files from my system via CuteFTP, the files are transferred, the progress bars fill up at the bottom of the screen and then the files are instantly viewable in the right hand/top pane of CuteFTP in their respective public_html folders. Today, I found that they finished uploading but that nothing showed up until i placed my mouse cursor within the top right pane of CuteFTP and hit the F5/Refresh button?.

Its seems to be issue with your cute-ftp client you are using to upload the files.
If I am missing any of your point please highlight it, I will get it answered right here.
