The future continuous is formed with shall/will + be + - ing:

			I/we shall be doing
			You/he/she/it/they will be doing

We can use the future continuous to talk about events that will be happening at a particular time in the future:

			This time next month we'll be sailing through the Caribbean.
			I hope the race goes well. We'll be watching it on TV.

We can also use the future continuous to talk about things that we expect to happen in the usual course of events. In this case it does not suggest "continuousness":

			You'll be seeing her soon, won't you?
			Management will be meeting the union representative again presently.

We can also use the future continuous to make polite enquiries, when we wish to know what somebody's plan are:

Will you be coming along with us this evening?

We can also use the future continuous to talk about what we believe or guess is happening at the moment of speaking:

			They'll be arriving in New York just about now.
			I wouldn't phone just yet - she'll be having her weekly massage.
