VFR on top

Flew a short trip a few days ago, and we were VFR at 3000 on top of FEW 1200. the flight was uneventful, but it got me thinking...

What sort of legal limits are in place for VFR on top. Looked in my AirLaw book and it says a PPL with no IMC or IR, must remain in sight of the surface.

Does this mean that you could fly VFR on top, in BKN cloud, provided you had the surfact in sight?

(Sorry if this has been asked before, I did perform a seach but nothing came up.)
