Pilot light on gas boiler

Mr Pounder Esquire formulated the question :
A friend has a Baxi 45/4M gas boiler, one with the gas fire in front
of it. Seems the pilot light has a habit of being blown out when it
is windy. He could not ignite the pilot light yesterday, but today the
pressing of the buttons worked.
Press for gas/ hold / press for spark. I'm sure you know what I mean.
Seems the pilot light is behind a glass shield, difficult to get to
using a match.
I suspect that this is going to happen again
Any suggestions?
Is it not lighting, or not staying in once lit?
Can it be made to light with a match? and stay lit?
He managed to light it yesterday, then it went out again.
Seems the pilot light is behind a glass shield and is very difficult to get
to. The sparker did not ignite the pilot light. He said that he could hear
the gas.
