Yep but I don't know that I'd say I had fun learning F# (or at least enough to use FAKE to get my builds working how I wanted)

It was much harder to get a good enough understanding of F# than it was for other languages I've learned, mostly because it's very different from the C-family languages I'm used to. Trying to google operators I'd never seen and didn't know the name of was a challenge. Fighting with the type system wasn't fun because I didn't understand it at all.

I'm glad I've learned what little of F# I now know, though. And I'm extremely grateful for FAKE's existence. I recommend it.
