Personal VFR minimums

Hi all,

Just wondering what ranges of personal minimums other private non IR pilots fly by, I am a LAPL with around 70 hours TT so pretty fresh, I describe myself as a VVFR pilot (Very VFR) as in I only really fly on very good days.

I'm quite happy doing this for now but I was wondering if there is a general consensus around good PPL minimums to go by? Legal VFR minimums are as I understand, are a recipe for VFR into IMC if you're not careful.

Maybe this is a question that doesn't have a straight answer or I should be getting some instructor time to go flying on a slightly worse day to improve my understanding.

Any help appreciated, even if it's harsh.
