My grammar book prescribes the use of the future simple in the following sentence.
"I expect she will sunbathe until she gets badly burnt - that's what she did last year."
I would use "going to" in this sentence as it's base on past evidence and there's high probability that she's going to do that again. OK?
Since sunbathing assumes ongoingness I would also use the future progressive as in " I expect she's going to be sunbathing............." OK?
