Slink and sulk around for the weekend (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skulk

'slink' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'sulk around for the weekend' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates an anagram.
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the weekend' becomes 'k' (I've seen this in other clues).
'sulk' is an anagram of 'skul'.
'skul'+'k'='SKULK'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for skulk that I've seen before include "Move secretly" , "Lurk or loiter stealthily" , "Lie in wait" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
