Cooks' Matches are another decent option, strike (almost) anywhere and a slightly weather-resistant box. More importantly, they are slightly larger than Swan Vestas or other smokers' matches, although naturally enough the downside is a much bigger box. Buy them at any supermarket in the UK, but I'm afraid I have no idea about Internet suppliers.
