The classic ORiNOCO cards are probably the easiest to run under Linux and work with Kismet/Airsnort. cdw.com and newegg.com have them - both U.S. sites. Not sure of their ability to ship to the UK. Make sure to get the classic, not the world gold - different card entirely.
Zcomax cards are great as well - probably easier to find in Europe as the ZyXEL B-101 (Zcomax made certain cards for ZyXEL, SMC and others). Detachable antenna allows for the use of an external one.
