Note thanks during part of weekend - consequence of beach trip? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

suntan

'consequence of beach trip?' is the definition.

'note thanks during part of weekend' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'n' (abbreviation**).
'thanks' becomes 'ta' (UK informal version of 'thank you').
'during' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'part of weekend' becomes 'sun' (abbreviation for Sunday).
'n'+'ta'='nta'
'nta' going within 'sun' is 'SUNTAN'.

(Another definition for suntan that I've seen is " Bronze".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
