Well, what a coincidence!  Look what I've just collected..
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ukha_d/files/Pictures/s-oak.jpg

Cost was 9UKP / linear meter - finished size is _just_ under 6" x
1"

This isn't for a floor, but for my bathroom vanity unit...  I will
update my
site as it gets built.

I'd channel into the concrete and bury some 25mm steel conduit.  You
don't
need to make too good as it will be covered with lovely wood :)  I'm
sure a
decent carpenter can make a floor box to match - just sink the back
boxes
into the concrete far enough to allow the lid to close on the
connectors.

BTW, have you seen http://www.screwfix.com/product.phtml?5305
quite
reasonably priced as low as 31.99 UKP per square metre ;)
