Two mothers’ chimneys

Old English saying for when something is either too difficult or too easy to do

“Is it a complicated route to get to there?”
“Oh no, it’s like two mothers’ chimneys, you can just get the underground direct.”

Or

“Gosh, that tax return process was complicated!”
“I know, I did mine last month and it was like two mothers’ chimneys”.
