immediate future?

I understand that one uses the present tense for the immediate future, but when does the future lose its 'immediate' character? I would think that tomorrow is NOT immediate, and would require the future tense!

Repeating the subject of a sentence with a single pronoun

"Ma copine Julie et moi nous adorons voyager..."

Is there a rule for when to repeat a compound subject (Julie et moi) with a single pronoun (nous)? It seems that sometimes you do it and sometimes you don't. Thanks!

Party favours?

"Party favours" in not a term in use in Australia as far as I can ascertain, and I had never heard of them (with either of the meanings I discovered).

Doesn't help much when the urban dictionary definition is essentially 'hard(er) drugs'!

Luckily, overseas sites advertising other 'party favours' gave a different insight, as did wordreference.
