So ... I compared the sizing guides at urban outfitters and next.
According to them ...
UK size 10:
chest = 34" = US 6
waist = 27" = US 8
hips = 36" = US 6
UK size 6:
chest = 31.5" = less than US 3
waist = 24.5" = US 3
hips = 33" = less than US 3
So that whole US sizes = 2 less than UK ones thing appears to be a lie. A size 6 is still pretty thin unless you're short though.
Also English people seem to have bigger waists! Though I think the American sizes would fit me better

Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
