Too many flutes. Oboe or Clarinet?

[AntEater]

DD1 play the flute to an average school orchestra standard, only prob is that the orchestra sounds justlike James Gallways band as there are SO many flutes.. (plus all the kids with the hyper competitive mums play Flute )
Anyway, time for another wind instrument.. I like the oboe, dw likes the clarinet.
Any advise on this??

also (btw) after learning to play oboe I have been able to play flute with no problem as all the fingerings are very similar. I can also play clarinet and sax with not much difficulty sound wise but occasionaly have to refer to the fingering charts.

I think once you've learned how to play one reeded woodwind instrument, taking up another is relatively easy.
