English you can use - Bristol, Connecticut USA annotated
English you can use talks about his hometown Bristol,Connecticut in the US. He relates about 3 things of note: a local museum, a famous person who used to live near by, and a local fall festival.
The American Clock and Watch Museum is dedicated to telling the history of the rise and fall of the clock museum in Connecticut. Bristol some 200 years ago was the clock manufacturing capitol of the world. This museum is not overly large, but it holds more than 5500 clocks! You can normally visit from 10 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday from April to early December. During the winter months, please note that the museum is open mornings by appointment only.
Mark Twain or Samuel Clements lived nearby in the state capitol Hartford. Currently his house is a museum that you can visit and learn more about the writer who wrote The adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Even though Mr. Twain is not originally from Connecticut, he and his family lived in Hartford from 1874 to 1891. This museum is exciting to visit even if you are not interested in the writer Mark Twain, as this Gothic house is decorated with beautiful antiques including real Tiffany lamps.
Finally, the Mum festival is a local fall festival held in September with a parade, carnival and a beauty contest. The festival has been held yearly since 1962, and has its origins because Bristol Nurseries attracted people to see their flowers since 1920, long before the festival started. Now the chrysanthemum industry is no longer thriving, but you can still enjoy this local festival celebrating a flower most identified with mums or mothers.

West Coast Clock & Watch Museum
The West Coast Clock & Watch Museum was founded on the 16 of September 2000. It is an institution dedicated to the historical research, restoration/conservation, and display of antique timepieces.
The current collection contains unique one of a kind examples of hand crafted European clocks and watches from the late 1600s when clocks were only affordable to the most wealthy and influential individuals of their day all the way through the latter years of the Industrial Revolution of the early 1800s through the early 20th century where mass produced timepieces were made affordable to the population at large
The museum features changing displays that include diminutive gold and gem encrusted ladies wrist watches from the 1920s to large ponderous cast iron tower clock mechanisms weighing many hundreds of pounds. Included in our core exhibit are exotic French, elegant English, and endless diverse examples of wall, mantle, shelf, and floor standing timepieces executed by some of the most famous names of the clockmakers art including John Ellicott, Aaron Williard, Edward Howard, Seth Thomas, Chauncy Jerome, Florence Kroeber, William Gilbert, Anson Phelps and others.
Our interactive collection is sure to please both the lovers of the best in decorative arts and those take a great interest the development of timekeeping technology over the past five centuries.

Bristol's Angels, A Tribute
During the past few years, my hometown of Bristol, Connecticut has suffered losses of all different kinds. Murder, suicide and tragedy seem so common in our streets. It leaves you wondering when death will come knocking, and whether it will be for you, or even someone you love. When creating this video, I wanted to send a message. A message of love, of peace, of hope and of remembrance for the angels God has taken from us so soon. We must come together as a community to make this town a better place. Not just for us, but for future generations to come. We must also live our lives the best we can, for our angels, because they would've done the same for us. My heart goes out to everyone affected by these most recent losses. May we all find peace in memories and love. Rest In Peace to Joey Klett, Tyrell Walker, and all of Bristol's Angels. God Bless.
XOXO,
Mir

Man ignores museum rules, touches priceless Clock which falls from wall and smashes
Visitor accidentally destroys museum clock: CCTV video at National Watch and Clock Museum shows timepiece falling from a wall.
This is the excruciating moment a priceless clock falls from a museum wall and smashes into pieces after a curious visitor touches it and knocks it off its hook.
The CCTV footage was posted online by employees at the National Watch and Clock Museum, in Columbia, Pennsylvania, where the incident took place.
Written alongside the clip is the warning: 'This is why we beg and plead with our visitors to please refrain from touching objects in museums.'
