Am I correct in thinking that US sizes are bigger than UK ones when looking at clothing sizes ?

Yes, United States have vanity sizing most places, so:
UK Large = US Medium
UK Medium = US Small
etc.
(This is from experience with gents clothing)

As far as I know, no.
However to avoid problems just ask for sizes in inches and get someone to measure you, they're the same inches on both sides of the Atlantic

Thanks mate
No problems. This is what I've found personally, but I also have it on the authority of a girl I know who designs clothes for some (huge) American chain stores.
DISCLAIMER: I suppose that sometimes it depends on the shop though. For example, some places might offer more fitted stuff. Best to double-check sizing guides on all sites.
Yeah just checked now with the store im ordering from and it seems I come up as small on there charts.
How to knock a guys ego !

That's generally what I find as well.
If I need a large shirt, I get an XL one in the States.
If you need a medium, get a large one.
