That annoys me intensly. I want to know delivery charges 'before' I
got to checkout or bugger about registering.

You do know them. It's in the help on the website, under 'Online
Ordering'. Clearly states the threshold is £45.

But you shouldn't have to bugger around reading them either

Dave's right

As a general principle, online shopping sites should show you the whole
cost before they get to the point of asking for your payment details.

As CPC do. All charges are shown in the basket once one item is in it.
And it continues to reflect the charges as you add things.
