During the aforementioned FDH-STN-DUB-STN-FDH trip, my carry-on was weighed in STN both ways, and in DUB as well since it's a fairly big roll-aboard that looks much heavier than it is. Thankfully, it was 0.1kg lighter than the maximum allowed, so I got to take it aboard with me. Should have seen the looks on their faces...
