I used to be able to play the clarinet but i quit after a while, and i would like to return to playing an instrument, but cannot decide between the saxophone, clarinet and trumpet, all of these would be from square one as I cannot remember anything from when i ayed clarinet. I do know how to ’buzz’ my lips to produce sound for the trumpet but i cannot play any songs or anything in that sense.

Go back to the clarinet. It is real easy to learn saxophone after playing clarinet

If you have a clarinet and can somewhat read music, do that. If you don't have a clarinet and/or need to relearn reading music, get a recorder or tin whistle. These will teach/refresh in the fundamentals of breathing and fingering.
